In Camera...Late Summer Skies


A late August sky just after sunset, the golden glow reflected in still water held on the beach.
Late August and, at this time of year, the sun sets more to a west-north-west direction, providing glowing skies that are able to silhouette the solid shapes of the iron men on Crosby beach beautifully. A perfect background to show off the scene. Often, just as the sun sets, any wind will drop, resulting in perfect reflections in any pools of seawater held on the beach. This lightens the foreground of the image, providing greater interest than just a dark beach.


Two figures join the iron men in watching the afterglow.
The afterglow above the horizon throws the skeletal figures of the wind turbines into sharp silhouette.
