Tuesday Photo Feature

seanorr and Jen Selk each bring us amazing sunset images today, along with goddess_spiral’s long shadow image and Bhlubarber’s shot of the street signs at Water and Cordova. Each image is great and involves the sun and sky in some way (yes, that’s right, a loose theme).

As always I’ve sent a note to each of the photographers inviting them to post their thoughts/inspirations/stories behind the photos, but for now please join me in congratulating them all and encouraging them to keep up the good work!

Hi Matt and other BR readers. Thank you so much for featuring my sunset photo!

I took in in the early fall, on a whim. I was walking around down at Kits Beach and I was struck by how pretty everything was. The leaves were falling, the sun was setting, and I just thought I'd try to capture it.

Unfortunately, I don't have the best camera and I'm not sure the picture really does justice to how pretty Kits was that day, but I'm glad you like it all the same.

I don't usually take pictures of sunsets, and I don't usually take pictures of people. I was shooting the reflection of the sunset on the unusual intertidal outflow stream when I looked up and saw this jogger staring at the sun.

The title is a reference to The Cure who are referencing Camus.

Thanks for posting my pic...great selections. I was shooting cyclists whizzing by at Tour de Gastown and stopped for a bit to look up...fans, sky and signage angled nicely I thought. I like this feature you've got here...
