A storm was rolling in today at sunset. I have a feeling it might mean snow, but the clouds were amazing! This panoramic photo doesn’t do them justice. Click here for a larger image.

These are some shots of Park Lake at sunset, taken at the end of Lukas’ Birthday Party. If you want to get a more dramatic sunset, expose for the sky on auto and see what the camera’s settings are. Switch over to manual and use the same settings. Then start taking pictures, raising the shutter speed higher each time. The faster the shutter speed, the darker and sometimes more dramatic the sunset will look. Sometimes you can play with the white balance too. If you set it to fluorescent you can get a magenta boost to your sunset. Try it out and play around until you get what you like. Happy Snapping!

Yay! It feels so good to be outside again! Here is C-Man, the hottest guy I know. And doesn’t he look smart too?
