SUMMARY

The PF Photo Contest titled "From Dusk To Dawn" invites participants to submit digital photos that clearly depict either dusk or dawn. Photos must adhere to specific guidelines, including a maximum size of 650 x 490 pixels, and must not undergo significant editing beyond brightness and contrast adjustments. Each member is allowed to submit only one photo, which cannot be altered once posted, and all entries must be original works taken by the participant. The contest will conclude with a voting poll to determine the best photograph.

  • Familiarity with photo editing tools for basic adjustments (brightness and contrast).

Robert, are those colors natural, or did you use a filter?

That's a beautiful shot. I remember seeing a some very pretty sunsets over Erie too.

That's a beautiful shot. I remember seeing a some very pretty sunsets over Erie too.

I took the shot with my DSC H9 Sony Cybershot, aperture: F8, shutter speed: 1/3200, focal length: 70.6mm, and ISO: 80. No filter, but I think my high altitude most likely had a factor in the colours (I was in a small prop plane).

I have a few other shots of the same sunset if anyone would like to see them, in one I even caught a huge barge crossing the lake!

This picture is from my cellphone while waiting for the Paul McCartney show to begin!

Note: The screen you see is not where the stage is. It's actually even further back. (Crowd of 300,000.)

You have less than 2 days left to submit a photo for what promises to be a difficult contest to vote on.
