5 Quick tips to take better Sunset pictures

Every sunset is beautiful in its way. They are one of the most scenic and beautiful things on earth. The colors at sunset are most vibrant and when photographed, they look so stunning. To make a creative sunset picture, you need a little knowledge about the light.

• Check your camera manual and find out if there is a specific mode to photograph sunsets. Many cameras do have it. If there is, and try photographing sunsets and see what results you get.

• Shoot in aperture-priority mode on your camera and bring down the F-stops a little. You'll see that the points of light will turn into tiny star shapes, called "sunstars". It's fun! Try it out.

• Remember that there is no 'Perfect-time' to click a picture. Believe in your artistic judgement and click when YOU feel its the right time. A lot depends on what kind and what amount of light is available to take the picture. Timing is important, but it doesn't have to be exact.

• Bad weather conditions? Take advantage of it and capture a whole new kind of sunset. Sometimes you may find a unique scenic beauty that is different from the usual.

• Wait for a while. You may find a great shot after the sun has set. So, wait for a while and checkout for some spectacular lighting. Sometimes when the sun has gone down, the sky still reflects some striking colors. Don't miss the opportunity.
