"Cabo Afterglow"

Since we are heading to  Mexico tomorrow I thought I'd post one of those fabulous Cabo sunsets.  This image was taken last December about a year while on a visit to San Jose del Cabo, Mexico. Every time we head to Cabo this time of the year, the sunsets are always magnificent.  This evening was no exception.

This view is from the beautiful Westin Hotel which is on the way to Cabo San Lucas, near where we stay when visiting that beautiful part of the world.  Even with a few tweaks in Lightroom 2, this is pretty much how I remember the sunset that beautiful evening.

The foreground is actually a reflection pool.  I positioned myself very near to its surface so I could get the "infinity pool" look in the image. The two lone palms framed the image of the sky, sunset, and reflection perfectly.

The results of this image speaks to the beauty of the moment. Moments that we should all strive to make a bigger part of our busy lives. 

Camera specs: Canon 7D fitted with 10-22mm wide angle lens at 10mm, F 8.0 @1/200 second, ISO 200. Enjoy!  David
