Technicolour Sunset II (Dee Why)

How the photo was taken:

I leave near Dee Why Beach. On a nice, summer evening, I'd take my camera to the beach to capture the sunset. The difference between Technicolour Sunsets I & II is I is shot during Blue Hour, where II is shot during Golden Hour.

The technique used in this photo is called 'motion blur'. It looks like a painting, but it is very much real and captured through the lens. You lower your camera's shutter speed, line up the horizon and pan left to right (or right to left), shooting a burst a photos. If your timing is right, you get the crest of a wave and a sharp horizon line; especially if you do it with a tripod :)
