The floral cascades caught my eye. The tumble of colours was nice. The area was in the shade of some trees. There was diffused light and a play of light and shade.
The location is in Infosys Park, Pune. There was a lot of green and well-tended gardens all over the place.
Technical Info
I used my Canon EOS 550D with Canon prime lens EF50mm f/1.8II. Aperture was set to f/6.3 at a shutter speed of 1/1000 sec. Flash did not fire.
It was a breathtaking sunset. Here I wanted to bring out details of the green land in foreground. I used my Canon 50mm prime lens at its widest setting of f/1.8. I focused on the grass. The result was a golden light and soft sun.
The shot was captured in Mumbai last month. Click here to see the image on my Flickr photostream. The photo featured on Flickr Explore at no. 256 of 2 January.
Camera Info
The camera is Canon EOS 550D. Shutter was fired at 1/800 sec. ISO speed was 100. Depth of field was shallow due to the wide aperture.
I was out on an evening walk when I saw the spectacular sky. A band of red clouds stretched for quite some distance. Such displays usually last only for a few minutes. I was not carrying a camera but luckily had my smartphone. I made use of it and here is the photo.
I captured the image in a residential area in Mumbai. I had to move about a little to get to an area not dominated by tall buildings. At the end of it, the tree tops made nice silhouettes.
Technical Data
I used my Sony C5502 camera in manual mode. Aperture was f/2.4 at a shutter speed of 1/125sec. ISO was at 40 and the focal length 4.1mm.
The shot was made against a bright sun which made the sky look aflame. The barren trees caught the eyes against a cloudless sky. The trees made nice silhouettes.
I came across the photo opportunity when I was travelling in Vasai. The trees caught my attention. I then composed the frame with the trees in the foreground.

The sky was partly cloudy. The sun had gone down to the horizon. The sky had turned red around the sun. Sun light had painted the clouds in marvelous colours.
