Dear Sam,
thank you so much for your kind feedback. It's a pleasure for me to share my experience and therefore I try to explain how I captured this sunsets.
First of all I use my Sigma 120-300mm (at 300mm) and a 1.4 and 2.0 teleconverter. This combination is necessary because I don't have 600m F4 lense )-; The more importan factor is the colorspace of your camera and RAW workflow. I capture all my shots in RAW and I use adobe98 colorspace. Before I create the jpg file I convert the colorspace from adobe98 into RGB. This is very important because the adobe98 red is not your jpg/web-red. And that's all about my RAW / Adobe CS workflow.
And by the way, I use always a centre weighted exposure.
It's sounds very easy but the reality is unfortunately more complex than the theory. I made a lot of sunset shots and 95% of them are crap. Either the colors (expecially the yellow) or the exposure ... you know.
Good luck!
Regards, Gerry

Gerhard, This is one Awesome display! The shot you take are Breath taking. I have one Question for you tho. I was looking at your Sunset pictures and was wondering if you needed a special lens to capture that shot. I have about 8 lenses for my EOS 20D, Im just not sure how to capture a shot like that. We have the most spactacular Sunsets here in Arizona. I would love it if you could help me out with this? I have been spending hours looking at your portfolio and I am still looking. WOW is all I can say. Your shots are amazing. Thank you so much for sharing them. Best Regards

Hi Fabio,
thank you so much for your feedback. Yes I used a polarizer and the filter did a really good job.

amazing landscape. The colors are a little extreme. Did you copy the sky in from a different shot?

Amazing landscape, perfectly framed.
I think you've used a polarizer filter isn't it?
Best regards Fabio

Nice. The colours are amazingly crisp and vivid, and the landscape is goregeous. This makes me think of something you'd see in a tourism magazine. Good shot - Mike.
