goldenhourphotography - Sunset over the Sea

Sunset in Greece at our sailing trip from Skiatos to Kalamata. Picture: Florian Glechner.

In 2006 i did a Sailing trip with my stepfather my mother my brother and my 2 stepbrothers in greece and we had a very nice summer holiday there. We where sailing on a boat and had a pretty nice holiday sailing and swimming in the nice sea. We had so many nice sunsets there but this is the only one i was able to shot a pretty decent picture. The Problem with this old point and shoot camera was that there where not much possibilities to set exposure time or aperture, everything is automatic.

But this day i really had luck and everything worked out pretty well. The sunset was really amazing in reality but also the picture here is pretty nice. I really like the variety of different colors visible here. (yellow, orange, red, violet). As i was sailing on a sailing boat it was also not so easy to keep the level, the picture leans a little bit to the left side.
