___________________________
On Saturday afternoon we took a very easy drive during which I only shot one frame – the last remaining moments of the African sunset during our drinks stop. As we stopped I took my camera, aimed, very briefly checked exposure and clicked the shutter. Nothing fancy. Sometimes you just have to shoot whatever catches your eye. No planning. No artistic interpretations. No fancy settings and techniques. Just see something, appreciate it, shoot it. To keep the simplicity of the moment, the only thing I did in post processing was to crop the image a little to loose some of the sky and give the image more of a landscape feel. African sunsets seem to last forever but it only takes a few seconds for you to capture that moment.
More soon.

Stunning!
