Hi guys

I was lucky enough to capture a beautiful sunset from Mt Pleasant on Monday evening and thought they were worth sending in.

Thanks.

It’s often the way, I took 20-30 shots in all and the first one in this post was the very first pic I took. Could have stopped after one frame!

90% of the time the first shot is best.

But it’s worth taking the extra shots for that 1/10th the time you didn’t get it.
