West side story, a photo from Provence-Alpes-Cote-dAzur, South

Photographer's Note

I noticed some trees that should be perfect in front of a setting atmosphere. I was on the place 1 hour before sunset to check what to take in picture and find the good positions of the camera. I feel it is an oak cork taken from a low PoV

Hello Claude,
Good planning, and an amusing title. The large tree does indeed look good against the blue hour sky and the bright sunset.
Best regards,
Gert

Lovely silhouette, just before the sunlight disappears, the final glow of the day. Great capture, Calude!

Bonjour Claude,

You planned this well, with very satisfying results!
The deep red of the lower sky creates the drama, whilst the whole sky makes the perfect backcloth for showing off the silhouettes.

Sunsets, like this, are rare where I live but we saw some absolute beauties whilst on holiday in Norfolk.

My warm regards,
Bev :-)

Salut Clodo
You obviously have a great eye for a good location and dramatic silhouette. Also, well done with your planning, so important with landscape shots. I love the colours in the sky and the carefully selected pov makes the tree look magnificent.
Best wishes
Kasia
Ps. I loved the workshop you posted for me, it really made me smile! :-) I'm used to being on both sides of the camera, in certain countries I pose for more photos for people's FB/IG than I take portraits. In countries like India and China I was constantly asked to pose for and with local people, but also in Iraqi Kurdistan and North Korea - anywhere where cameras/smartphones are used.

Hi Claude
This is a beautiful silhouette and sunset capture bundled with rich tones. Really different, like fantasy art, would not be out of place on the pages of Jim Burns books!! What a treat.
Best regards
