Fire in the Sky over Hive Beach
The sunset looked promising this evening. Broken clouds were right across the sky and although there was a small bank of cloud on the horizon, it looked as though it wouldn't affect the after glow. For once, it played out exactly as that!
The clouds lit up as the sun set, firstly a white / milky colour which slowly tuned orange as the sun went down and then for a few minutes, it turned to these wonderful, fire'y colours ..... dusky pinky-blues, through pinks, orange and golds ... it really did look like the sky was on fire.
The boats on Burton Bradstocks Hive Beach once again form the foreground. The sun is moving North again as we head into Spring and the fishermen will start launching them off the beaches again soon, so it will all change down here shortly.
Nikon D90, Sigma 10-20mm @ 10mm, F9, 1/4 sec, Lee 0.6ND Hard Grad, ISO 100
