Taken at the Magic Kingdom. I spotted the sun setting low at 6:31 p.m. as we walked by Cinderella's Castle. I immediately stopped and angled the shot so the sun would be behind the castle. I didn't want to get alot of details on the castle so I bumped the shutter speed to 1/2000 of a sec. Thus the castle is in silhouette while there is a nice glow around it.

All I did on the PP was:

-5 on Brightness & +5 on Contrast to deepen the shadows

-Saturation Adj. settings of Bias: Normal & Strength: Strong.

Resize & sharpen.
