One Sunset - One Rock - Eight Vistas - 6 by Lexa Harpell.
A series of eight scenes from one night's sunset.
Positioning myself high on a granite rock, I had full 360 degrees view of the sunset across the surrounding farmland and granite rock belt.
It was a windy night, so I knew the clouds would be changing shapes and forms, and wanted to see how many different views of just ONE sunset the area could bring.
Firstly, a direct sun ball drop behind a silhouette of a nearby large granite boulder.
Once the sun ball drops below the horizon, you wait to watch the clouds take on the vibrant colours of the afterglow from the sun.
Twilight hits with its first visible star, Venus, then a handful of stars faintly lighting the sky.
The sky darkens, more stars show themselves and with a brief moment, the glow from the sun and and darkened clouds compete with the night sky.
These captures were taken on a wheat farm in the granite belt on the Eyre Peninsular in South Australia.
