Some tips to players making sunset sceans:
I noticed a lot of sunset sceans have massivbe amounts of details or light colors the closer they get to you as like you see in Day. This dosnt happen, there is little or no color in a Sunset scean.
As the sky fades to its bright colors and eventually to night, the edge of the sky is Bluish Black. not BLACK, Night skies are not Black.
Anyway. some of those things just bugged me in pics. And yes I know some people are doing it so you can see the animals/humans in the pic. There is a minimal amount of detail on the edges of things. Like on a blade of grass, you would see a REALLY dark green with lighter edges rather then normal green.
This was just a fun pic, testing stuff out to see if things work with a sunset scene on water. I found that it is hard to convey the sunset on the water, despite the easiness it appears. I may go back and add some detail like blades of grass by the water, but for now, I'm satified. And the timer dosn't lie
