This was taken last evening as I walked with Biggin down to the mailbox and back. I had grabbed a digital camera with a 300 mm lens and 2x tele-converter for grins because I have been seeing a blue heron around and didn't have a camera in hand the last time I saw it. Obviously,the sun was setting against a nice smattering of mixed cloud types as an approaching weather system was falling apart. I often use trees or whatnot to add impact and break-up the foreground if available. I did not even realize that my across-the-highway neighbor had a hammock hanging there until I started framing the picture. I took a couple of dozen different variations of this sunset, playing with the foreground and exposures to bring out the cloud patterns.
One effect of using a long lens, as I have pointed out several times within this weblog, is that background objects appear disproportionately larger than the foreground objects. I wish there had been a fully visible sun, but it DID make the clouds appear larger than life. I used the automatic settings, but closed the aperture down 1.7 stops to enhance the clouds (otherwise it would have just been a silhouette against almost white sky). The camera also has a vivid setting that pumps the color saturation up a bit. This is one that I happened to upload to FB. I write a good bit about such techniques within my photo blog for those who may want to learn more.
