Southern Light drifting overhead – Golden Hour Photography

in #goldenhourphotography7 years ago (edited)

Taken on the island of Koh Lanta, this is one of the more distinctive sunset photos I’ve snapped during my travels in Thailand.

Fiery canopy 

This photo was taken from some rocks near my bungalow, on the west coast of the island. Since the view is due south, those fiery wisps of cloud were apparently not on the western horizon, but almost directly overhead.

Golden hour, coming to you 

When seen from the shore, the horizon is about 5 kilometers away. I cannot recall the scene on the horizon at this time, but we did not have to go looking for a vantage point from which to view the sunset.

On this evening, the Golden Hour came to us. In the enlarged photo, you can see that the glory of Golden Hour was all around us. Almost everything has an orange tint – the clouds, the sky, the water, the rocks, and the sand. Even the trees have a few points of orange among the dark leaves.   

This is my entry in @juliank’s GoldenHour Photography contest.

This really looks awesome, is it edited, if it isn't then you have got nice photographic skills, you are a professional then, the sunset is really awesome. You are gonna win

I just checked it on iPhoto, and I edited it just a bit. A bit of "contrast" and a touch of "highlights." But this is quite close to the original.

I'm not a pro. It was the sunset that made the photo so good!

Sunsets make photographs awesome

Wow. That sky is like a painting.

On this smaller image, I just noticed that almost everything has an orange tint.

The clouds, the sky, the water, the rocks, the sand, and even the trees have a bit of orange among the black leaves.

This is not only a golden hour photography; it is a golden shot and the descriptions, too, are written in golden. Always a pleasant thing to see your shots.

Amazing photo. The clouds look great. In one of the sessions I nominated you, I hope you will like it - https://steemit.com/steemitnamechallenge/@cranium/why-cranium
