Marlon du Toit: " Want to know why NOT to put your camera down after sunset?


Scroll through these pictures & you’ll have TEN reasons why to keep shooting!

There’s very often a special kind of light that shows up just after sunset. It’s pure magic. All the harder shadows caused by direct sunlight are now gone & you are left with dreamy light & photo’s that ooze soul & mood.

To get this right & in an ideal world, you need gear able to shoot in low-light. You’re often shooting between ISO’s of 2000 - 8000.
Also, you need a lens that stops down to f4 in the very least but ideally, f2.8. The 400mm f2.8 has been my favorite lens for the task.
Lastly, you have to have the sunset at your back. Don’t forget this. It you shoot into the sunset after sundown, your images will often be darker & void of colour. Not always, but often.

Regardless, keep shooting! Do not out that camera down!"
