Mexican Sunset | Friday Apr 03, 2009

Again, Im not sure how this will look on the big screen, it was hard to take this shot as I was battling not only the bright sky, but also the bright water, throw in that the rocks and the bushes were all in the shade of the sunset and you have quite a few shadow/highlights to blend.

On a separate note, Its my 43rd birthday today! My wife bought me some new clothes (much needed as I have long since given up styling myself) some aftershave and a GPS mount for my iphone ready for V3.0 release.

Life sure passes you buy, the great thing about Photography is that it makes you stop, savour and enjoy moments. I love being a photographer! (and a skier-scuba-diver...)
