where he was photographing a wedding at the
time.
" It was certainly a 'right time, right place'
moment and stopped all of the wedding guests
in their tracks to take photos with their phones, "
Ladia says. " The light and color that filled the air
around us were magical. "
The lens Ladia was using wasn't wide enough
to take in the full view, so he improvised his way
to something unique: " What makes this photo
so special is that I created it using 39 separate
photos and stitched them into one panorama, "
he explains.
5) Never stop learning.
If you're using your sunset shot as a way to get
started in photography, almost every one of our
photographers had the same advice: keep going.
" I think you can always grow and learn, "
explains Jennifer Marie Griffin of Jenny Marie's
TheRoanoker.com
Photographie. " I'm all self-taught, getting experience
from other photographers, other people, or
watching YouTube videos. "
Beginners will also absorb a lot simply by
repetition, Kristina Love says:
" As a new photographer, what I did in the
beginning was I practiced all the time ... every
day, in different conditions, and got to know my
camera and the settings, " she explains. " Take lots
of shots, lots of angles ... Experiment and have
fun with it! "
Most of all, don't give up.
" Even as a photographer with a little bit of experience,
I still have those days where I look at
some of my photos and say, 'This is all garbage,' "
admits Chris Tribble, owner of SnapKraklePop
Photography. " So, don't stop shooting! " I

A Railroad Town Sunset, by Jennifer Marie Griffin. Griffin was
located at the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Bridge when
she captured this unplanned shot. The downtown pedestrian
bridge is a great spot for sunset photography.
CLOCKWISE FROM FAR LEFT:
Sunset at Hanging Rock Overlook, by Kent Gugliuzza.
Gugliuzza shot this sunset from the Hanging Rock Overlook
Trail. No special equipment was needed, he said, " unless you
count the rock I used as a tripod and some minor editing in
Adobe Lightroom. "
A Reflected Sunset, by Chris Tribble. Tribble captured this
photograph right from his own backyard - a great place to
look for your best photos.
Sharp Top Sunset, by C.D. Farmakis. For this shot at one of his
favorite locations, Farmakis used a tripod and remote-control
shutter release to avoid any blur.
A Downtown Sunset, by Jared Ladia. Ladia's 35MM lens wasn't
wide enough to take in this panoramic view, so he combined
multiple photos to create it.
A Stormy Sunset, by Jason Rinehart. Rinehart caught this
photograph from Purgatory Mountain Overlook on the BRP,
just after a small tornado touched down across the valley in
Botetourt County.
A Blue Ridge Parkway Sunset, by Kristina Love. Love's shot
here was taken from the Arnold Valley Overlook on the Blue
Ridge Parkway, where she frequently searches for great vistas,
aided by a weather app and a sunset app.
