FAA WATERCOLOR MARK DOES NOT APPEAR ON FINAL SALES
This is the fourth photo in a series of photos that I took in Freeport, located on the south shore of Long Island. As stated in the other photos I was with some friends and informed them that I wanted to take advantage of the various different scenic sunsets on Long Island at various times of the year. Since the sun begins to set around 3:30 pm I told my friends I wanted to get down to the waterfront a little before 3:30 pm and be able to pick my places to photograph different angles of the sun setting on the horizon and capture various colors of the sky. While none of my friends are photographers they do enjoy the atmosphere on the Nautical Mile throughout the year which is know for its fresh and great seafood and fantastic music of all kinds. They told me they would meet me at a bar while I went off and took my photos. After taken several photos from one street I began to lose the sun and raced in my car to Guy Lombardo Ave which stretches all the way out into the Atlantic Ocean inlet, here I was able to get a different perspective on the sun setting. In this photo I put my zoom lens on and photographed the amazing orange layered sky over Freeport, Point Lookout and Long Beach as the orange in the sky began to take on a molten color to it as if it was shot out of a volcano. A small area of yellow was still showing from the powerful sun's glow that day even at about 4:15 pm. The color orange in the sky was lighting up the water inlet and I could clearly see the inlet and it's movements as the wind began to pick up and create small ripples in what was a calm water scene. I was amazed at how the sky continued to change colors in layers and especially enjoyed the way this photo came out with a complete orange colored sky with various tones of orange in it. Along with a nice silhouette image of the trees and land in the background. Another gorgeous Long Island sunset.
