Silhouetting during Sunset
Photograph in low light on purpose!
To get the people silhouetted I exposed for the highlights on the water and opened up one f-stop; in-camera meters tend to want to expose whites as gray. Image was color tinted and vignetted to emphasize the mood of a dreamy summer day. It could be done with an orange filter on the (telephoto) lens, or in post-production in Photoshop, as was done with this image. A deep blue filter could make the image have a terrific moonlit feeling. Brisbane, Australia.
