Is That A Rembrandt Sunset?

Looks Like Heavenly Colours To Me

Photographs copyright: DAVID McMAHON


I've always told budding photographers that the best skies to capture are those just before sunrise and just after sunset, when it looks as if the horizon is aflame. Also, if there's a bit of cloud cover, you know you're in with a chance of some great colours.


Another crucial point is not to fret if there are obstacles in your way - either trees or hills or man-made objects. Just use them as silhouettes to add value to what's composed in your frame.

These shots were taken on Tuesday night, here in Melbourne. No, they're not enhanced in any way - there's no need for technology when Nature shows you utter perfection.
