Views From a Sunset Walk

Yesterday it looked like there was going to be a colourful Sunset so I used the dawn/dusk setting on the Nikon S9050. This emphasises the oranges and reds which can often be washed out or lost on a general colour setting. They are cropped and tweaked just a little.

The final one is my particular favourite.

    1. For a pocket camera with a typical price of around £125 it would take some beating. If the top range Nikons are comparably better then they are worth investigating.

  2. Are the specks on the one with the lady and dog insects? They aren't any on the others.

    1. I meant to mention that Adrian. I took two a few seconds apart of that subject and they both show the same coloured spots. Didn't see any insects. Maybe they were produced in the camera with the Sunlight at a particular angle refracting through the lens elements. Otherwise it might have been an overreaction of the chip if swinging the camera about caused it to look briefly directly at the Sun. No damage either way as shots after this one are clear.

    1. Thank you Phil. Vaguely reminds me of Turner - one of my favourite artists.
