For Spring Break I went to Tenerife, an island off the coast of Morocco. On our last day there, we rented a private sailboat to take us snorkeling and whale watching. As the evening drew to an end, the sun began to set, casting a radiant blood-orange hue across the water. Off to the east, in stark contrast, dark foreboding clouds sank over the island, luminous and sly. The mountains rose upwards, swallowed by the impending rain. The perfect photograph, captured by a wide-angle lens in color with a diaphragm of 8, would show both sides of this contrasting scene - the tranquil sunset in the west, and the coming storm in the east - with the glowing water acting as an indifferent, yet hypnotizing mediator.
