Kuta Beach Sunset

The story behind this picture is as follow :

I arrived on the beach 1 hour in advance to take a few test pictures to get my settings right. I had to move a few times as people where just getting in the way and i didn't want anyone too close in the picture. In that afternoon i think i talked to 5 or 6 different people who were curious about what i was doing and who i was working for. I simply told them that i was taking pictures to learn more about photography.

I was very lucky that a couple of surfboarders were taking a picture in front of my frame just when the sun came down from the clouds. In post prod i gave some dramatic look to the clouds by darkening them a bit.
