I don’t know if i have yet said it on my blog, but i’m currently contracting at the BBC. I’m having a really excellent time, working on the Olympics 2012 website. For the record let me just say, i love the new BBC Sport website! :)
I’m working at White City, on the 5th floor of Broadcast Centre. We have a phenomenal view out to the west, a full clear view of the sky. For reference, here’s what it looks like in the early morning. The sun has just risen and the rays are spreading across the landscape …
But the real fun comes at sunset! We get the most amazing scenes! Here are some taken by talented photographer Dineshraj Goomany:
These photos by Dineshraj are absolutely stunning. I would love to learn to be that good at photography!
We have downloaded sunset reminder apps, and we have made it our mission to photograph the sunset every day. As Dineshraj was away the last 3 days, it was up to me to keep it going.
Monday looked so promising …
… but the clouds came just at the sunset …
Tuesday was so cloudy (and full of smoke from a nearby fire) that you wouldn’t even know a sunset was happening …
Wednesday was a phenomenally beautiful sunset! Here it comes about ten minutes before the set …
… we got these amazing gradients in the sky …
… it was so clear, i could see exactly which buildings the sun was setting behind …
We’ll be continuing to photograph the sunset as often as possible, so follow Dineshraj on flickr for all the best shots! :)
We make no promises how long we’ll keep this up, as the sunset gets later every day! :)
