[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I was at Green Mt beach, Coolangatta, with some friends, when I noticed this absolutely gorgeous sunset. I got out my camera and one of my friends got out his didjeridoo and wanted me to take some photos of him playing it. The sunset was the perfect backdrop.

Nice one ! You can actually do 2 images here. The sunset backdrop has very interesting cloud formations. TFS and have a nice week !

The exposure of the sunset and the main subject in the foreground is perfect. The framing and the composition very nice. I like the mood you have created here, well done!

Hi Claudia,

I absolutely agree with you...perfect backround of sunset, and composition with the guy on the right side of the photo works great...well done!

regards, Ivana

Interesting use of fill flash, though it has flattern the image a a little bit. Try using a seperate light source it helps to keep the DOF. One I used was a long exposure with a third person taking a flash shot at a different angle. It also stops the flaring on the foreground grass

Great horizon and thos colors in the sky are burning. I wish he was on the other side of the shot where the sky is calmer and leave the right side fully exposed and covered by those murky clouds. Who cares though - GREAT SHOT!
