The Last Evening Light

Ma Wan, Hong Kong view map

The sun was almost at the horizon and produced the beautiful mellow evening light.

As the magic moment lasts only a few minutes;
setting up equipment at the right time, the right location and
the right angle is the key contributing factor to a successful picture.
I based on the calculation procedures by NOAA developed a sunrise/sunset calculator.

Dear CM, this series is just getting better each day!!!
But that "NOAA Sunset/Sunrise Calculator"... Please forgive me if I'm being an idiot to follow... so, kindly let me know the time and location after you've done all these calculations. Thanks in advance!:-)
