Hugging the Sunby =mydigitalmind

Photography / Animals, Plants & Nature / Weather and Sky

We took a small hike to watch the sunset... and ended up accidentally trespassing on someone's land (the gate was open when we got there!!!).

One of my favorites from the set of photos that I got.

Location: Italy, outside of Sant' Agata
Lens: Canon EF 70-200 F4 L IS USM

The colours here are really striking - I love the layers and the light through the thin strands of spider web. It gives the piece a dusty, nostalgic kind of feel. The flowers framing the sun is a lovely touch, it looks like the flowers are cradling it. Very sweet, and well chosen title

. I think I'd like a slight saturation of the colours, to really bring them out and make them even more vivid. I'd like a little more of the orange sky, maybe a few centimetres higher, but that really just personal taste. The slightly off-centre position of the sun works really well here, it's balanced and feels very natural. It's a beautiful photo, you have a great eye for detail and it's beautifully positioned.
