This is a shot from last night in Huntington Beach. Once again it was a cloudless flat sunset. But when the sun hit the horizon the sky would light up this bright Orange. With a 0 Ev the sun would get absolutely blown out so I decided to go with a -2ev. I got lucky with the birds flying into the sunset they made a great prop to give the photo some more interesting focal points.
The Shot:
Single Exposure, F/9, ISO 200, 1/2500, -2EV, 70-200L @200mm, Tripod mounted, forgot my remote shutter release cable
