Here are a few more shots at St. Simon’s Island of various sunsets and sunrises. In addition, the picture out of the window was taken inside the St. Simon’s lighthouse. The picture of the staircase was also taken looking up inside the lighthouse. These steps are very steep and challenging to navigate. I had to be very careful while climbing. The images here were edited more than the previous St. Simon’s photos with software so they look a bit different. Enjoy.
St. Simon’s Island
I went on a trip to St. Simon’s Island and stayed at a friend’s condo. Each morning I was me with the glorious sunrise right off the balcony. In the evening, the spectacular sunset was amazing. We collected shells on the beach every day. All and all it was a beautiful and restful time.
Sunrise at Phinizy Swamp
On Saturday, October 24th, we ventured out to Phinizy Swamp to take some sunrise photos. We assembled our equipment–camera, tripods, shutter releases, on the boardwalk over the water that faced where the sun would rise. We waited a bit and around 7 am the sky began to get orange, and glow with the impending sunrise. We started to snap away, moving the camera in different directions to capture the beauty from different angles. The instructor, Ed B. told us to set our ISO to about 400 and the Exposure Compensation down about 2 stops. I set my EV to negative 1.7. Here are some of the amazing images I shot on that gorgeous, glorious morning.
