The Sunset Couple!
Category: People 'n Portraits

These two were sitting outside the Bannerghatta national park as we were walking towards the parking lot. I dont know if they are a real life couple, but the sun was surely setting when I took this shot :)

The pic is taken with the Canon EF 180mm f/3.5L (macro) lens, handheld in Av mode, f/6.3, ISO-400. I used a -1 Ev exposure compensation, since the light was not that good. Even with the exposure compensation, the exposure time was 1/160s, slightly lower than ideal.

Mridula: Hmmm ... looks like I shud invent better sounding titles :)

Neelima: Me too Neelima. 5 - 6 pm is the best time to take outdoor shots

Joshi: Lets say, I was there at the right time :)

Pyari: Very nice of u to comment. I know I put some details which many people are not interested in - but the end of the day a picture is a picture and shud not require any technical know how to appreciate it

Rajesh: Thnx Rajesh

Rocksea: I guess they were taking a break after a hard days break. In that sense, they may also be welcoming the softer sun :)

Marie: Merci Marie

Ram: Thnx Ram

Thomas: Thank you

Mohkum: At the end of the day, I felt that the one without the Ev correction was too bright :) So, I also felt this one was just right
