Description
I’m incredibly fortunate to live in Sydney, Australia—an astonishingly beautiful city known for its stunning harbour views and breathtaking sunsets. Residing in the Eastern Suburbs, one of my favorite spots to soak in the scenery is Dudley Page Reserve in Dover Heights, just a quick five-minute drive from Bondi Beach. This popular viewpoint attracts tourists and locals alike, making it a perfect place to experience the incredible vistas of the harbour and CBD.
One memorable evening, after wrapping up a corporate shoot, I hurried home to take my adorable border collie, Ollie, for a walk. As I drove back from a nearby dog park, I was struck by the brilliant orange hues of a sunset beginning to emerge. Realizing that I had only five minutes to capture this fleeting moment, I quickly parked the car, grabbed my camera gear and Ollie, and rushed to the lookout.
Time was of the essence; I had to work quickly to seize this unique opportunity. Although setting up my tripod took a moment, I was determined to achieve the highest quality image for a large canvas print while minimizing any potential motion blur in the low light. Once I secured my camera to the tripod, adjusted the settings to manual mode, and peered through the viewfinder, I was left in awe.
In that perfect moment, I witnessed a couple proposing against the backdrop of the sunset, while an airplane gracefully flew beneath the glowing sky and the iconic Sydney skyline. It felt as if everything had come together perfectly, and I knew I had captured an extraordinary scene that would forever remind me of that magical evening.
