Description
I submitted this photo at the same time I wrote my last journal "back to DA!"It´s my first work since I was away for exams season.
To celebrate this date I took my camera to my favorite place to photograph nature - Guincho / Portugal - And waited for the sunset to go to this desert like place. This is a photo from a dune. Like I´ve said, I´ve waited for the sunset, about 8:50pm, so the colors became more intense, against the more and more darker sky.
Hope you like it, I will explore it a bit more, with new ideas next time.

Lê o comment do Andy mais em baixo... não é dificil conseguires estes tons fortes e quentes, basta apnas esperares pelo por do sol e usares um f mais elevado depois como fica um pouco escura, puxas os levels no PS e ta feito

É um pouco pânico... pois com um vento enorme é dificil estar deitado para conseguir angulos diferentes... enches a roupa toda de areia que levas depois pa casa e é proibido la andar...

hehe sim é... tive que encontrar um angulo dificil, sem apanhar os pequenos arbustos das dunas... nao apanhar uns pequenos muros em ruínas que la estavam e um ou dois postes de electricidade... mas depois de varias tentativas consegui realizar a ideia que tinha em mente

good job!
