Twilight
October is my favorite month to photograph. The air is cool and refreshing. The colors are great and the light is wonderful. There is a good mixture of sunny days and stormy weather… I love both! Above all, though, the sunsets are usually great.
One particular evening as I was out at the lake, I turned west just in time to see this line of birds crossing through the golden light after the sun had dropped below the horizon. I quickly turned the camera and shot. I didn’t have time to think, I just did it. I was glad to have had enough experience to know where my camera settings needed to be because I only got one frame shot and the birds were gone. It is so important to understand the technical aspects of the camera so that you don’t miss out on these kind of opportunities.
