[quote=GAFFER,416002]Lonely, Sunrise and sunset photos change dramatically from when the sun is hidden to when it is in view. If there are clouds this can add even more drama. First let your camera take a shot on auto. Then, switch to manual and "bracket" the exposure reading. (Adjust the shutter speed to one (or more) settings above and one (or more) below what the camera thinks it should be). Take plenty of photos, it costs nothing on a digital camera. To get a good sky exposure any forground detail will be in silhouette (just black). Use this as part of your shot, perhaps framing. If you have Photoshop or Elements you can blend two photos taken at different exposures into one to give an even more spectacular effect. Use a tripod and the same f stop adjusting the shutter speed to maintain the same depth of field.[/quote]
