Sunset Blvd

Taking my Holga along on a trip last weekend for experimentation stirred my interest in learning photography.  Truly I'm not a photographer; my snaps are usually purely for documentation rather than the art of it. I've really enjoyed the easy access to some surprisingly great pictures from my phone. But I'm learning to take my time and see it as a composition aid for my painting and design work.  Using film has forced me to slow down and take a meaningful shot.  The suspense of film development is killing me!  I'll post the results next week.  Meanwhile, let's talk sunsets.

I'm drawn to sunset photos like a moth to a flame.  I try hard but rarely get good results.  These are two of my best attempts recently.  Budget Travel published this article about how to take better sunset photos.  Give it a shot (ha) this weekend and let me know how it goes for you. - l.o.d.
