Vacation - it's all about sunsets
Posted By: stash, 07-21-2008, 11:47 AM

As I said in my previous thread I am back from the vacation with my family.
We've spent really fantastic 13 days on the coast of Croatia.
The city is called Valbandon and it is just 6 km away from Pula a beautiful old town with around 200 km of beach.

In this thread i will post just some sunsets that I took with my K10d and A 35-105

You've got some great sunset shots here (especially 2, 4 and 11) - I just love the colors.

You might consider making the horizon level in your shots, though. Some people find it distracting and think the water is going to leak out the side of their monitor!

Thanks, I did consider leveling the horizon, but then again I just thought what the heck

Lovely shots of the sunset(s). One of the things I havnt done since getting my camera is visit the coast (mainly been rambling around the countryside), i'm suitably inspired to sort that out though, thanks

Very very cool. I like the reflections in the water on the third picture.

I assume you set your exposure to the sun or sky to get the silhouettes like that? They turned out good.
