10 stunning sunset photos

Sunset photos can be some of the most breathtaking photos out there. Talented photographers make good use of lighting, reflections and most importantly, timing.  As the sun sets and draws closer to the horizon, the light of the sun is reflected by the sky overhead. This creates more even lighting. Plus, long shadows can create fascinating effects in otherwise static landscapes or portraits.

Here are 10 of the most stunning sunset photos we have found.  Be sure to check out our quick tips video so you can start shooting amazing sunsets of your own!
