Picture of the Trip; San Diego, California





Well, yes this is another picture from spring break but I thought that it might be a good one to put up. I know some of you are thinking “wow, another sunset that’s great” but I believe a few things here set this sunset apart from any old sunset.

  1. First, the height of the sun allows the most amount of color into the picture.
  2. Second, the ocean waves add character and fall just short of distraction.
  3. Third, the wet sand provides for the perfect reflection of the sun.
  4. And finally forth, the birds flying into the sunset create a sense of nature, and show that sometimes you need to be in the right place at the right time.

I had a failed photo shoot of tree silhouettes this week, so those pictures will have to be delayed until next week. This picture was taken at ISO-200, f/4, 44mm and 1/4000sec.
