I'm a bit of a snapper, so I hope it's OK to show some of my work......
A couple from a recent trip into Wales. As the late evening light gave way to the dusk, and the rain clouds rolled in, I left the main road and headed up into the hills to grab a few pics. All in all, about 30 mins fron start to finish, after which the light just sort of faded away.....

Thanks Scuba!
OK, so I have a reasonably swish set-up, but the thing to remember is that a camera is just a box with a lens on the front - any of the shots I've shown could have taken with a cheap compact camera (or even a cameraphone).
The key element is in the timing. When the sun is low in the sky, it's rays pass very obliquely thtrough the atrmosphere producing, not only a lovely colour shift towards warm yellow, but also the sidelighting that yields those long shadows.
Just to illustrate that, here's a local landmark taken in broad daylight;
.....and here's the same thing shot in the last light of the day;
Here's another which lets that acutely-angled light to pick out the bridge's structure;

Any constructive criticism welcomed!

Now that is superb! The use of differential focus just asks so many questions in the viewers mind.
How did you do that?
