01. Photographing Sunsets
Sunset photography at Cefn Sidan Sands located at Pembrey Country Park in Carmarthenshire West Wales. The sunset images I have captured here have been outstanding with views across to the Gower peninsular.
Cefn Sidan offers so much opportunity with its wide vista, which normally ends up with the sunsetting to the right and the moon rising to the left over the Gower. From oranges and reds to blues and purples and pretty much everything in between.
All these images have been taken by me since 2014 and are available to purchase from my store.
Equipment
Sony Alpha 350A Sony and Tamron Lens
Nikon D7200 and Sigma lens
Nikon D7500 and Sigma lens (replacement after taking a fall on the beach and dunked it and me in the seawater
02. What Makes Cefn Sidan Special
With 8 miles of flat sands Cefn Sidan is one of the longest beaches in Wales and holds a blue flag status at the time of writing this post. Its so vast the RAF use it to train beach landings with C130 Hercules and the even larger AM400 Airbus!
Photographing sunsets got started for me on this beach, it was difficult as I had no clue what I was doing, but some friendly help from a local camera club and a lot of practice got me on the right track.
The sunsets at Cefn Sidan have produced some absolute stunning spectacles, do check them out
