How to make a cool sunset with your phone camera

[ruslankolodenskiy]

 If you wnat to get cool pics of some beautyfull sunset (or sunrise) you should know a few trics:

Choose the right exposition.
You should tap with your finger on the brightest part of picture on your screen befor you will make a photo. When you turns on your camera, tap on the sun or on the brightest clouds and then make a photo.

Panorama not always good for sunset.
It will be better if you will make your sunset photos in normal mode. In panorama mode sunset can be with vertical stripes or with light borders.

Sky or clouds should be your main target.
When you make photo try to capture sky with clouds and not the black side of picture with dark ground or buildings.

Hi @ruslankolodenskiy good tip, you can also download a camera app that gives you similar controls to a camera where you can set your own exposure and aperture to match the light you're trying to capture. I use an app called Manual Camera which is pretty good. Note that your phone hardware needs to support manual control - not all of them do.

Good luck in your quest to paint with light.
