A little bit before sunset...
Intentionally underexposed to bring out the details in the clouds.
I was at a photography event last weekend, and attended a session on Landscape Photography. While the session was really good overall, the instructor stated that a photographer should NEVER shoot towards (or away from) the sun. Always a a significant angle (preferably looking east or west) to bring out the texture of the land). And that Sunsets should be studiously avoided.
On that point, I humbly disagree.
Now, maybe the image above isn't really a "landscape". But it is a sunset. And although it is aimed at the sun, I feel like there's a good bit of depth here, and texture. Oh well, he's the professional, and his work is certainly better than mine (sincerely, no sarcasm intended). However, I'll continue to shoot what I like, how I like. And this photo pleases me. I do hope some of y'all out there don't hate the results.
