The Legend
 Exiled Scot in Maidstone
Inspored by the summer images thread, I do love a good sunset - there's something almost mystical, and a little melancholy, about seeing that huge ball of nuclear madness that keeps us all alive slipping beneath the horizon. Unfortunately I am not the world's greatest photographer, but to tempt all you great snappers out I'll get the ball rolling :

On board a private yacht off Nevis in the Carribean in 2008 :

Same trip, moored off Moskito Island (just next to Virgin Gorda, owned by Richard Branson) :

June 2013- we've had quiet a summer - great thread
 
Nice photos everyone! :thumbsup:

That flight must have been a bit bumpy Carol? I can remember flying into a thunderstorm over Turkey on the way back from Dubai. It was worst turbulence and scariest time I've ever experienced on a plane!!

It was ok as the storm was over to our left flying out, I didn't realise I'd got the lightening bolt in the pic til later.
It was the most beautiful/scary thing I've ever seen. I wanted the plane to fly closer (in a stupid way!)
 
Pics 1 to 4 have been taken with Nikon DSLR's of some description. Pics 5, 7 and 8 were taken using my iPhone! Pic 6 and the last 2 sunset ones were taken using a Sony NEX5 camera.

The photo of my shoes on the beech was actually a mistaken shot! I went to move the camera and ht the shoot button!! :P
 
I did a set of images a while ago I called the Dark Coast series. Sunset pics taken at Tintagel in Cornwall then post-processed to give more of a darker edge.

This one was set up by me then shutter pressed by the wife. Me doing a Yoga Sun Warrior pose! :P
