Stalker Afterglow
Port Appin, Argyll, Scotland
This image was taken a few minutes after Castle Stalker Sunset as the intensity of the sunset colours started to fade. It is only after the sun is well below the horizon that these gentler, less in your face, pastel tones emerge. I was struck by the bands of purple, pink, yellow and orange created by the afterglow. The gentle tidal movement in the loch helped create the interesting variation in reflected colour seen here.
