I’ve tried haphazardly to get good shots of campfires and sunsets. My results? Mixed.
Campfires often bring the challenge of low light, and it can be tricky to capture the feeling of the flicker with a static image. Sunsets always bring the challenge of low light, and it can be tricky to capture the feeling of a horizon-scale event with a non-panoramic shot.
But none of that stops me from trying as opportunities haphazardly come my way. My latest attempts occurred in Calgary, on a deck with a gas flame surrounded by glass walls, and in a parking lot (the theme of the week). Both brought reflections into the picture. How could I resist?
