To find this place, we must first consider is the direction of the light. When the sun is setting and near the horizon, the evening before the last rays of sunshine will add a layer of beautiful warm color to move, for the earth and in the opposite direction of the position of the with the sun on the mountain light, bring the earth golden glow. Wait until after the sun completely disappeared in the horizon, before the real darkness comes, we still have a short period of time to enjoy the beauty of sunset, then we can try to shooting Angle to transform toward the sun's position, and have the opportunity to shoot a photo include sunset silhouette effect.

We can light out of the door, or only with a portable camera to record the scene, so we don't have to struggle for carrying heavy equipment.

Before starting the survey location, don't forget to make sure the accurate direction and location of sunset.

Instead use the spot light, and the sky part of the screen to lightGuarantee will do so on the one hand came out of the sky color and detail perfect reduction, on the other hand is also the prospect of in order to make the picture presents the effect of the silhouette.
