Description Hi all! Here's a shot I took yesterday in Porkala (a point just outside Helsinki in Finland) at sunset. Not that special a sunset but it was ok. The sun literally just disappeared behind the clouds there, and no nice colours after the disappearance, thus the title. Processed RAW in PS and added border.

Print available.

Info: Canon EOS 20D | Sigma 12-24mm EX HSM | Cokin X120 + X121 Graduated Grey | ISO100 | f/22 | 0.6secs

Hope you like it. Comments and critiques are welcomed.

How incredibly soft this one is. It's really a pleasure looking at this. Perhaps a little too much saturation on the red there right around the sun but that means nothing really. I love how you do these waterscapes and how you manage to capture the perfect light.

Yeah you can, but it's impossible to answer, as I never do the exact same thing twice.

Solkku In reply to amethyst-mist [2007-01-14 00:34:30 +0000 UTC]

Thank you. I didn't do much altering to the photo outside of the fact that the RAW photo has been processed in Photoshop.

I love all of your photo's, but I have to say that this must be my favourite...the perfect balance ( in my mind) of warm and cold, bright and dark, icy and hot....all the seasons perfected into one lovely photo...brilliant...one of my most favourite dA pieces of all time

Thank you. I usually have my camera set to high contrast and saturation.. Plus I use the graduated ND filters which help a lot too.
