Default Heysham Sunset



Obvioulsy i selected my location with sturdy tripod and waited for the dramatic sunset that never was...........lol

I set the camera up as follows........

F 13
ISO 100
Mode Manual
Metering Pattern
Exposure 1//60
Focal Length 35mm
Camera 17 - 85mm
Lens Canon Eod 40D

I actually wish i could have got lower down to the water to show more of the boat as a kind of silhouette but that wasnt possible due to me being situated on a high (25ft ish ) dockside wall in heysham, near morecambe in lancashire.

so my main problem is that the sunset wasnt tthat dramatic due to lack of scattered clouds i think, but i kinda liked this shot, i was lucky enough to have a boat full of truck to leave the docks just after sunset which in my opinion made this image.
