You just can’t beat a good sunset!

Our home lock-down does not enable me to get many good sunsets at the moment. So here is a splendid evenings shooting at Balnakeil Bay in the very North of Scotland from 2014. This was taken around 22:00 but I stood snapping for another hour getting the glorious after-effect lighting. As I took this, I was accompanied by about another dozen photographers all shooting the same scene, some doing long time exposures. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this.

Enjoy full screen

I haven't seen such a good sunset since we left Norway to return home. We don't live anywhere near a coast here, and our village is in dip, so no wide skies.

I agree Herb, you can't beat a good sunset..............and this is a wonderful example.

The colours are simply awesome and you've captured the whole scene in great depth and detail. Excellent work my friend.

Definitely worth viewing large - I can see this printed on a huge canvas!

Herb Riddle ^club has replied to Keith Burton ^club

Sunsets are always good to see and capture Keith. Not many as good as this but they all have their merits. So glad you like it and one day I might try to paint it too :)

This sunset is stunningly beautiful. I like the orange colours. The narrow cloud before the sun is the icing on the cake.
