If there is something I have a soft spot for as a photographer then its a sunset. You can never get tired of the sun disappearing over the horizon with its coinciding oranges, yellows, blues and purples along with a beautiful afterglow. Even better is when you can find a nice subject to put in the foreground to compliment the sunset. In this case the Horse Memorial here in Port Elizabeth.

ReplyDeleteOh no - it was to the Boer soldiers i think.
ReplyDeleteLooks like the man and horse are really there in front of that colorful sunset instead of being a statue. Very nice capture Jonker.
