Sunset vibes 😍

I don't know people but I just can't get enough of these sunset vibes! 😁

I picked up a few friends who are on vacation and I drove them to one of my favorite 'chill-spots'. If you've read my other posts you know I take full advantage of this island life and I just go and watch the sunset and or take pictures. I'm lucky to have some amazing nature around me.

So we picked up some snacks, a few drinks, beers, some smirnoff ice and wine-coolers, put them in our little ice box and drove off 😎😎😎.
It doesn't get any better than that!
This was the vibe:

Now for the nature part!

I tried something new and used my 55-250 mm for these shots.
I'm not gonna lie... I'm pleasantly surprised!
Normally I think I have a much broader (less zoom-ed in) view of sunsets, I watch the clouds, how the light hits the water and of course the sun itself.
And these compositions are fine, I have a lot of those shots.
But the zoom lens gives you a different element and a chance to focus on the sun itself. On this particular day, the combination of the clouds and the sun resulted in some seriously fiery skies 😍😍😍
Aside for the technical stuff, I can't say this enough... A sunset is a magical moment! Corny as it sounds. But this is like natural therapy for me. I'm sure I'm not alone in this... Right?

Check out the results!

*This one is my favorite. Something about the boat, being on a journey, being free. It adds something extra *
