RE: A beautiful Italian sunset ..for all steemitfriends

in #photography7 years ago (edited)

Excellent photo. While most sunset shots tend to be primarily a blast of orange, I love the way the sky in this shot is mostly pure white. The light "brush strokes" of orange against the dark clouds provide a beautiful contrast.

And the stark silhouette of the black tree, right in the center of the foreground, adds a nice touch.

Great scene, great composition.

Thank you friend! Great observer .. you caught my shot well and the value of the picture .. unfortunately still little appreciated by others!

You're welcome. And thanks for the complement. I'm not a great photographer (although I can take some good snapshots), but composition and color / contrast are not very difficult points to learn.

Still, I'm often surprised how many people cannot even compose a decent photo. They simply look at the main subject, and click.

So when I see great photos such as your photo above, I appreciate them very much. In a way, they are fine works of art. (Maybe sometime in distant the future, it will sell for $145 million)
