Chasing the colours

I drove up to Gyles Quay, my favourite spot to catch a sunset, this evening.
The sunset seemed disappointing, so after walking the length of the pier and taking some shots, I decided to return home as there was quite a cold breeze.
No sooner was I driving home than the sky lit up.
Luckily I remembered another small road leading to the coast and got there in time to capture this beautiful sky.

This is impressive. The contrast between the dying warm colours of the sky and the increasing inkiness of the rocks is quite striking. The fact that the sky is also becoming grey on the right imparts a sense of sunset rather than sunrise as well. The light of the sky is putting up a good fight, but you know that it's going to lose in the end.

Wonderful ambiance with these colors, lighting and shiny rocks in the foreground. A very nice perspective across the water. "V"
