Happy Autumn (two days early due to travel)...

 

 

Two days early works better for me because the mountains block the horizon.

Mister Dave, if I may hi-jack your post I would like to add my "Big Sun" Pic here.

Hope you don't mid. Taken last night here in South Louisiana.

Hi there!

 

:)Great pics jimmy!!!!!

 

 

The more time I spend lookin' at this picture the more I see. It is stunning as related to cruising.

 

I think it captures so much, 'Da Funnel', walk way, and a sunset at sea, etc.

 

On our next cruise ,Thanksgiving week, I am going to look for something like this.

 

Do you have any "background' info about this, or is it just one of those random moments.?

JimmyJames

 

PS> I hope this is not a "Photoshop" picture, BUT, if it is, it is a very good job of blending/combing or what they call it.

For those of you that have sailed on Celebrity Century, you might remember the beautiful art on the aft window in the dining room. I took this picture while sitting at dinner of the sunset.

Advice from a Longhorn to an Aggie

 

Dear Aggie,

 

The shock and awe of a sunset and/or sunrise depends on the following:

 

1) Relative position of the sun to the camera...behind, front, low, very low...etc

2) The quality of the gear ... wideangle, large f stop f(f2.8), pixels, filter, etc with cheap gear you can lose almost all the effect

3) The dramatics of weather ... best is storm clouds (coming or going) bright sun peaking through horizon... if you got that (sunrise or sunset) its will be shock and awe ... especially with a great sea/land scape and a wide andle lens (at least 110 degee angle)

 

Regards,

PS: I will be thinking of you 11/26/2009 --- Hook-em horns!!

How did you get two sunsets if there is only one sun? :confused:

I assume one to many Miller Lites will cause my typing skills to degrade somewhat.

 

That's my story and I am sticking to it.

Both of these pictures were taken the same night at the same place. The first was taken about 15-20 minutes before the second:

Its amazing how a small time frame like this makes such a huge difference.

Wow, that tree sure did grow a lot between the time you took the two pictures.

[jimjamxx]

Yea, I noticed that tree growing as well. I guess it has something to do with changing lenes.

JimmyJames

PS> How are the pictures????
