Stillness, twilight time in southern Sardinia, Italy.

In the stillness of an hot midsummer day’s end, the twilight graces the sky with a pale and delicate gradient of colors. A lighthouse silently guards the calm sea. This soothing atmosphere, which seems to be timeless, lasts in reality just some minutes; however, the feelings conveyed by it last much longer in the eyes and the spirit.
To capture this fleeting moment, I’ve used a medium telephoto lens with two filters: a 3 stops ND which extended the exposure time enought to smooth out the water, plus a 2 stop graduated ND filter which darkened the upper portion of the sky, balancing so the brightness of the scene.
