By the power of GreyStolk!
This was the last sunset that I shot last thursday with Henk Stolk heavily influenced by Henks treatment of the images from our shoot with models Zoe de B and Christie Wright at Titahi Bay, Henk is a master of Dark and sinister images.
I’d passed this image up for not having my requirement for lots of flowing water, but the sky is fantastic, reminds me of the 186 AD eruption of what we now know as Lake Taupo, an eruption so violent it sent flaming red matter into the sky so far that it was seen as far as China and recorded by both the chinese and the Romans, this sunset with its saturated colours is almost prehistoric.
Shot on nikon D700 with 17-35mm nikkor lens, processed in photoshop in my own version of HDR.
