The Tochigi Series 2 - The final moment of the day

Jan 06, 2009 by Stuart in Birds

It is very difficult to capture a beautiful sunset in Japan. The sun sets so fast, so there is no slow changing colours as the clouds move across the sky. To take a nice sunset picture we need an excellent foreground which will usually be a silhouette against the coloured sky. In Tochigi, for a few minutes I took four photographs.
