Well you are certainly getting to grips with that new camera and what a beautiful sunset sky you captured with it here, a Happy New Year to you,
Regards, Rod.
dinghysailor1 replied
thanks rod and everyone for all your lovely kind words!! I was shooting ‘in the dark’ (without seeing anything onscreen for 2 weeks) so was hugely relieved it came out without ruining my sensor or my eyesight… phew!
cheers and thanks again all!!

maggie, you outdid yourself on this shot, the horizon is excellent, the handling of lighting..wow! and your composition, amazing shot, looks like that camera and you have a wonderful relationship going :)
Paul Manning

Lois Bryan
Sooooo magnificent, sweetie!!!!! OOOO … I think we were in Playa Del Carmen?? It’s ringing a bell … we left the ship to go overland to Chichen Itza … and somehow, I think Playa Del Carmen comes into the adventure. I saw your note above to Rod about the sensor … I’ve always wondered about that … just what is the poop on shooting into the sun and our cameras, anyhow??
Joanne Bradley
Majestic is the first word that came to mind, with all that gold of course! Just a spendid sunset!
