The Shots
A spring trip to capture the Saltburn pier sunset.
The Composition
The sun drops below the horizon behind the pier, using the pier and sunset as a background and the wet sand in the foreground to reflect the colours and clouds I set up for the shot. It was not long before I was joined by a few other photographers though it was a little too windy to strike up much of a conversation!
The Technique
Given the bright sunset I needed to use a Lee 0.9 ND hard graduated filter to balance out the scene.
