Must See Sunset

in photography •  7 years ago 

Some sunsets demand your attention. This was one of those that make you stop everything that you're doing and experience a moment of pure magical awe. And, as much as we can try to capture the feeling with a photo, the majestic color and grandeur of the sky - a picture doesn't do it like presence does.

This reminds me of going to concerts, which I love. You can spend your whole time taking pictures to try to remember, or you can take a few shots and BE PRESENT. Being present is where you experience all the feels!

So take this as your invitation to be in the moment, feel all the feels and take life and all the magic it offers in!

Love your thoughts on being present, agree 100%, and this is a gorgeous shot, very worthy of being shared, even if it takes a moment to capture it, we all benefit from it!

Yes! Thank you for your comment and compliment! I'm learning to balance when to shoot a pic and when to just be in the moment. We're always learning in life, huh? :)

I think for me personally it's when you start to overthink pictures, or spend more time trying to get a perfect version of it (especially if it's people, and people are like, oh i dont look good or this or that), is when it becomes kind of purpose defeating, I love silly pictures just capturing that mad moment, instead of posed "pseudo-perfection".

nice, a litle bit more color would be more great, but this pic is already nice
