Dining at Sunset Photo

Photographer’s Note

One of the nicest parts of my holiday was eating in sunset light. And the food was awesome while the evening sky danced in delightful array of tones and shades.

Hi Paul,
The sunset is awesome and it must be quite an experience. The silhouettes are interesting due to its variety - people, chairs and umbrellas. The low horizon emphasized the sky with the highlight area nicely placed. Excellent shot!! Have a nice day.

What I like is that this is not a common sunset. There is a lot of people and action! Nice red tone.

Beautifully captured!
Marvelous colors and silhouettes that lead the eye toward the right side of the picture, where the sun sunk under the clouds..

I love the blue sky peeking through that orange and yellow glow. All the people and chairs and activity make this sunset very interesting. Dramatic, vivid colors too, what a lovely atmosphere for dinner! Well done.

Good grief Paul another truly impressive sunset. What I like here is how the sun seems to have gone MIA. It's interesting how parts of the sky are still somewhat blue. Once again the use of the silhouettes really makes the shot. Congrats Paul!!

Another winner Paul;

Again, great detail, beautiful color and amount of saturation. I must admit, I have a slightly different opinion on eating outside. Not sure how the humidity was in Vallarta, but here in Singapore- it's high, and you just drip sweat the whole time. I much prefer something inside and airconditioned- with a view of course. Haha
But it must have been nice to not have to worry about the mosquitos Paul?

Cheers,
- Dan

Hi Paul,
You have a way with the evening and morning skies...:) Amazing colours very well taken. Nice framing with the beach umbrellas and the people sitting on the beach. The skies are beautifully pictured here
Nice shot. Thanks for sharing

Hi Paul,
Wow! This is quite a stunner. I like the silhouetted figures and chairs in this well balanced shot. The sky colours of course are incredible and of varying hues. Good framing and cropping increases the dramatic effect. Great capture, Paul.

Another great shot from Mexico. I really like the sky and that little touch of blue makes a big difference. I guess this shows that you have to take your camera everywhere, but if I took a picture at dinner I think I would have got my hand slapped!

Hello Paul,
fantastic shot, the colors are incredibely warm and I like this little part of blue sky, it contrasts very much with the entire scene...
Great picture.
Luan
