Mountains on Fire
Sometimes you just have to sit back and watch what mother nature decides to do. I have just witnessed on the best sunsets that I have ever seen. It was one of those evening where you didn't know where to point your camera. This is the first of what I suspect will be quite a few images from this evening!
It reminded me a lot of watching an amazing aurora display in Iceland and thankfully I remembered previous experiences. If you are lucky enough to witness an amazing sunset, sunrise or aurora, it is very easy to start and rush, the end result are images that don't work or are poorly composed. It is so important to take a few deep breaths and then slow everything down. This will feel totally alien as you want to take as many photos as possible and as quickly as possible, whilst the light is at its best. But trust me, taking your time to think about what you are actually trying to achieve will pay massive dividends. You might only end up with 1 or 2 great photos but that has to be better than 10 plus images that leave you feeling disappointed.
