Bold Shape Sunset

Beautiful spent night on Novigrad's (Istria, Croatia) coast with my girl and a stranger who came out of nowhere 2 hrs before this photo was taken. And the stranger was with us until we went home
It was nice to see how 'normal' man responded on my work and photos I showed him on camera lcd screen between taking shots really amazed him.

This is the last photo from that photographing day so you can conclude the sun was far far behind horizon and for this long exposure I just used 3 stop LEE gnd filter to hold back the skylight. Of course, I used tripod and cable release to keep the camera as steady as possible. I used mirror lock up function to preserve camera from shaking too - my first time doing it!

NOTE: No Photoshop except color temperature correction and cropping foreground a bit. The rocks are naturally so rough/sharp and the orange light that is falling on the rocks is from the streetlight from behind as the beach was, I don't know, 50 meters from the street.
