Look Behind You!

Many times I have read or been told by seasoned photographers, “when you are taking photos of a specific sight or event, don’t forget to look behind you, there may be a good, or better opportunity there”.

I did that exact thing last Friday night and this is what I found while taking sunset pictures, the sunset, first photo, followed by the Behind Me sight. The Behind Me photo is not focused as well as I would have liked, but dark, night time photo focus is something I need a lot of work on.

Very nice pictures, and funny, I just read that exact line somewhere just the other day about looking behind me for photo opportunities. Cheers.
