evening on the jetty

Posted by DarkElf (Perth, Australia) on 7 April 2008 in Landscape & Rural and Portfolio.

recently I finally had a chance to capture a sunset at the Busselton Jetty in Western Australia... it got dark a bit sooner than I expected but I got a moment or two to get a couple of shots in...

welcome to my photoblog and thanks for visiting... my aim is to learn photography and share my experiences with you, not only through my attempts at photography, but also through showing different aspects of the world that have caught my interest over the time that i have been walking this planet... hope you enjoy the journey with me...

A beautiful sunset photo and yes, it is a long jetty, but makes for a wonderful subject against that gorgeous sky.

Beautiful composition and color ... the long exposure made for a terrifically smooth surface on the water and the sky is a real treat ... sweet shot all around!

Great composition, really like the smooth sea created by the long exposure. The silhouette of the buildings are marvelous

I like how it transitions from lighter to darker as the eye moves from left to right.

this is the pier that has the aquarium at the end underneath the water right? never got a chance to go in, but did stop for a few minutes to take in the scenic value. wonderful place. you've captured its character very well here in near silhouette... and the sunset is gorgeous!
