What makes the haze interesting is the light from the setting sun is adding an amazing, ethereal glow to the sea spray. So the photo is a combination of good light, interesting weather and of course good timing.
It is always a good idea to try and convey emotion in a photo as well as good colour and light so try to take advantage of this type of landscape setting.
Unfortunately this scene didn't last very long otherwise I would have moved to a better location and taken some more shots of the beach in the distance with the telephoto lens of the camera to accentuate the depth of field.
Incidentally I was using the Sony H1, a 5 Megapixel camera which features a very good lens and colour sensor. Sony is introducing an upgraded model in June which is eagerly anticipated.
If you are interested in buying a good quality digital camera then the Sony H series is hard to beat.
This photo was taken at St Kilda Beach near my home in Dunedin.
The photo was taken at about 7:40 pm in mid February. Camera: Sony H1 Settings: 1/320s, f5.6, ISO100, focal length 20mm, 0 ev
