Sunrise at Pantai Air Tawar, Besut – Part 2

I have to admit that I was not so happy with the result I have got when I first shot sunrise at Pantai Air Tawar a couple of days ago. Perhaps the lighting at that time was not so flattering and I arrived there a little late.  Two days later I went there again much earlier with the hope that I could bag different and hopefully better pictures.  Here goes….

This time I think the lighting is better as the colour is richer and the cloud more dramatic.

I would appreciate your comment and opinion which one is preferred.

Thank you in advance.

Silhouette

Photographers, amateurs and pro alike, never fail to be amazed by silhouette.

Silhouette is a wonderful way to tell story, convey drama, capture beauty, evoke a sense of mystery and it is also used to express your mood, feelings and emotion to the viewers.

Silhouette has been a successful formula for professional photographers and photojournalist – sport photographers, war photographers, wedding photographers – you name it they have it.

Like other photographers I can’t help loving it and will try to capture it whenever appropriate and whenever the light and subject match each other to form a silhouette.

Wikipedia has intesresting definition of silhouette which touches on not only photography but a wider scope of application like in art, painting, graphic design and journalism.

Wikipedia has even gone extra mile by providing a gallery of silhouette photographs taken by various photographers for your viewing pleasure here.
