Pastels | Jamaica 2025 | Snugug Photography

The image captures a serene seascape at dusk, with soft, blended colors dominating the sky and water. The sky is a gradient of pastel hues, transitioning from a light peach or pink near the horizon to a gentle violet higher up. A few wispy clouds are scattered across the sky, with one prominent, dark gray cloud formation hovering in the upper right quadrant.

The water is calm and reflects the colors of the sky, creating a smooth, almost mirror-like surface. A string of round, dark buoys connected by a barely visible rope stretches across the foreground, gently curving into the distance. These buoys appear to be floating on the water's surface and act as a visual barrier, dividing the foreground from the open sea.

In the middle ground, a small boat with a tall mast is silhouetted against the horizon. The boat is stationary, suggesting it might be anchored or simply drifting gently. The silhouette of the boat adds a sense of scale and depth to the image. The overall mood of the photograph is peaceful and tranquil, evoking a feeling of stillness and solitude. — Pastels

On the other end of capturing the beautiful gradients of sunset are these pastels. I tried capturing these on my phone, but the processing it does is just too much for the subtlety of the colors.
