When shooting sunsets any time you quit before it's pitch dark you're going to miss the best part.
The colors may not get any better if you stay there, but I guarandamntee they will if you don't. On 7/23/2013 3:36 AM, Larry Colen wrote:
This weekend was my sister's 30 year high school reunion. She and a couple of friends rented a house down by the yacht harbor for a couple of days. Last night, I was down there noticed that it was a nice sunset and walked across the street so I could get some photos of the yacht harbor without telephone wires in the frame. I took a variety of shots, walked back to the house and noticed that just as I got back to the house, the colors were peaking. I went back down to the harbor, but by the time I got there, the best of the color had faded. In the future, when I'm photographing a sunset, I'll try to remember to wait until after I see the color fading before I give up and quit shooting. This one was from after I went back down, I had to shoot a lot tighter so that I wouldn't get the ugly bits of the sky in the frame. http://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/9346186775/ I did bracket my shots, and should probably try HDR on some of them.
