Georgia Straight Sunset
Bethany and I joined the Famous Uncle Robert and Aunt Sylvia on their boat last night. It was a beautiful calm evening. Not much wind, but it was a very peaceful time as we relaxed on the Georgia Straight.
With the exception of some mist on the horizon, the sky was clear. It made for a beautiful sunset. The sun was a massive glowing orb casting its long reflection over the calm water. It looked incredible as it lowered itself toward the horizon, settling just behind a distant pier. I hadn't had an opportunity to photograph a clear sunset like this from the middle of the water, so I was very excited to get my camera and capture the beauty.
I didn't bother with any processing because I'm too anxious to show you last night's sunset. I don't think it needs it anyway. This is the beautiful sunset, just as my camera recorded it. Isn't it stunning?

oh no you poor thing!!! But hey...it's photographed in your mind and your desciption seems good enough to me...
Oh no Timmy!!! You are too funny though.
Your description is lovely though. Sorry you forgot your memory card...I hate when that happens!!!
Its a winner. One day I hope to capture a sunset half as beautiful as this.. These things are sent to test us.. Sounds wonderful
This reminds me of the time I unknowingly set my camera to put the date and time stamp on each image. It was one of those once in a lifetime sunrises. I blogged about it too!

The good news is that you won’t make the same mistake twice!
Dude...buy an extra and keep it in your camera bag....argh!
Love how you turned this "lemon" into "lemonade," Tim! Shows that you've got great character!
you're so funny. I do that all the time. It can be so frusterating. I love that you posted this anway!
You have really cracked me up with this one, and there I was thinking I was the only one with a few loose screws.
Well go out and get more memory :)

Nice one
made me day! very amusing ;)
LOL! Great build up!!! That is so funny. I'm still laughing. You have a great sense of humor. I'll bet that this won't happen to you again. :-)
Thanks for the great laugh. I'm going to read it again!!!
Ahahah man that reminds me of the time I shot everything in broad daylight with the ISO set to 1600 on my camera. :( Good one, though.
Great Shot Timmybomb!
Just the way I remembered it.
I think it may have been better to not have the main subject directly centered - rule of thirds, and all that. The contrast is also a bit high, but the highlights really draw your eye to the main subject.
It was an enjoyable day!
Thanks.

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOL.
Lovely shot.
Reminds me of what I do - often. I am forever taking night shots and forgetting to reset my camera the next day when I am in full sunlight. "Over exposed" would be an understatement. It looks more like a "whiteout" in a blizzard. Doh.
crap, that sucks.
