A few evenings ago we were treated to the most beautiful sunset at our campsite at Thunderbird RV park in Campbell River, BC.
This is our view from the back window of the RV! I’m so glad we picked an RV with a big picture window in the back.
The estuary fills up with water at high tide, which just happened to coincide with sunset, producing beautiful reflections.

I made this image with my Canon 7D and the Sigma 10-20mm lens at 13mm, f/11, ISO 100, 1/4 second exposure. I’m not using my Sony NEX right now because I’m getting ready for my trip to Africa and I want to make sure I’m familiar with all the functions on my 7D again!
This is a single exposure processed entirely in Lightroom. I exposed for the sky and then in post processing I opened up the shadows to increase the detail in the foreground, and increased the saturation of the yellows to bring out the foreground grasses.
Ah, what a night!
Beautiful light Anne
Beautiful! There must be something special in the BC sky. We spent a week in Lund,BC several years ago and I returned home with photos of the most beautiful pink and blue sunsets I had ever seen. Lucky you to live there.
Wow, that is indeed a beautiful sunset and rivals the gorgeous sunsets we witness in AZ. BTW… I’m working my way through your books and enjoy your writing and stunning photos.
A really lovely shot.
Gorgeous sky and so beautifully captured 🙂
I was in the southern half of Vancouver Island last week enjoying the clear blue cloudless skies that are so common this time of year. You were blessed with beautiful clouds at just the right time. It’s a beautiful photo.
Gorgeous picture! It’s beautiful with the pinks and purples reflecting below! Thanks for sharing!
That’s how the day should end. Beautiful
What a beautiful world we have! Amazing!
Beautiful image Anne! I find that I too use Lightroom more and more to balance the exposure in single images without the need to bracket.
