Dining at Sunset Photo

Photographer’s Note

My wife and I where inside the dining room of a cruise ship ready to have dinner when the ship started to leave port. As it turned around, a gorgeous sunset suddenly showed itself on the round window of the ship. It was blindingly bright so they brought down the motorized blind that is made of fiberglass netting. It reduced the glare but the nice view was still there, so I took my camera and made a record of that moment. We were next to the group of people shown in this photograph. We were leaving Stockholm, Sweden on the ship MS Millenium.

Hi Andre, A very good composition, combining a sunset with silhouettes. I like the circle window and I like very much the flower on the left corner and hoe it goes from darkenss to light.

Very well captued. The round window and the silhouettes certainly adds to the sunset photo.

I like the strong sunset colours even though as you say they have been diluted by the blind.
