Sunrise and sunset, two of the most peaceful times of the day. At least when you’re on vacation, on a cruise ship, and don’t have to get up early for work or clean the house before you go to bed.
For most of our trip it was actually somewhat overcast. But we did manage to get one night and morning of some beautiful sunrise and sunset pictures in open water. My problem now, two weeks after the trip: I can’t tell for sure which photos are sunrise and which one are sunset. I feel old even as I typed that. In actuality, the pictures with the little oil rigs at the horizon, are sunset pictures for sure. Other than that, take a guess, and leave a comment and let me know what you think. Maybe my wife will comment and set the record straight.
In any case, all of the photos are simply breathtaking. Hopefully the pictures do the reality justice, and if you focus on the pictures and just imagine a warm Caribbean breeze blowing on your face, the smell of fresh ocean air in your nose, and the gentle swaying of the ship…then you’re there. Now just simply enjoy.
I’m not going to go into the technical aspects of sunrise and sunset photography, settings, or anything of that nature. If you’re interested in what settings I used, comment below and I’ll get with you.
For now, just relax, imagine being there, and enjoy. Let me know what you think by sending me a comment. Don’t forget to share the webpage with all your friends, and be sure to click on the “Like” button below.
