“Sunrise/Sunset” is the Photo Theme For February

Sunrise/Sunset – Photographing the warm glow of a sunrise or sunset is perhaps the most relaxing scene to capture. When most people are still asleep or having dinner the intrepid photographer braves the cold dark morning or misses eating with others while patiently waiting for the right moment.

As the sun hovers below the horizon then slowly peaks above revealing more and more of the landscape, it’s pretty wonderful. Or as the sun sets and the sky fills with fiery colors you are ready with your camera to capture the spectacle. In either case timing being in the right place at the right time is essential. Arriving too late and you’ll miss you opportunity.

Create photographs that fit the theme and upload up to five of them to the club’s Monthly Photo Themes flickr group.  Post them during FEBRUARY, not before or after, that way they’ll appear together with other club member’s images.
