Sunset Personality 1: Sepia Scene

2019-06-29 By Roger Edwards

Sunset Personality 1: Sepia Scene

[Part 1 of 5] One sunset can present many different faces, as this series shows. Unloading and preparing for what promised to be a fine sky during and after sunset, we caught the distant sepia tones from shortly before, as a bank of low, soft scud clouds passed in front of the sun. The clouds were thin enough to let the light through and keep the orb sharp-edged, but just the right thickness to mute the glare for photography with only a couple of stops’ exposure under natural light levels. The result was one of my favorite kinds of fair-weather images. [Part 2]

About

Welcome to SkyPix, an online photo book of clouds, weather and water by Roger Edwards. As in a printed coffee-table book, every image has its own page with a unique story. After all, meaningful photography is much more than just picture-taking; it is visually rendering a moment in place and time from a perspective like none other. As a scientist and an artist, I hope my deep passion for the power and splendor of our skies and waters shines through in these pages. If you are a cloud and weather aficionado, outdoor enthusiast, outdoor or nature photographer, art lover, or anyone who craves learning, enjoy...
