Standard Time and the sun sets at 4:20 pm on November 7. Paulette and I were walking and shooting photos along our favourite piece of the Saint lawrence called Le parc de la Plage-Jacques-Cartier.
I took this silhouetted tree twenty minutes after the sun had set. I like the colour contrast between the cool dark blue sky and the warm salmon colour along the horizon and reflected in the water. The lamp light (which had come on just minutes before this shot) adds another dynamic element to the composition.
I took the picture in RAW mode with the white balance in the camera set to daylight (5400K). To remove the resulting overly warm colour-cast I reduced the temperature to 3400K (typical sunset value) to achieve this more faithful rendition.
For the sequence of photos leading up to this moment go to my flickr album. Hope you enjoy them.
