Imperfectly Timed Perfect Tranquility Of Tampa Bay Boating And A Florida Sunset - IMRAN™

            Imperfectly Timed Perfect Tranquility Of Tampa Bay Boating And A Florida Sunset - IMRAN™
I was about to start taking photos of this beautiful sunset which was rich and textured from some moisture in the air, even without the usual cloud patterns which make for more dramatic colors. I saw my lovely neighbors come by on their boat and call out to me. Just then the fountains and waterfall of the swimming pool I was standing next to started up, making it impossible to hear them. I yelled and signaled for them to idle their engine so I could take a picture. That is when I realized that the camera's battery had run out from a long video timelapse the previous night. I quickly signaled to them to hang out there as I had to run in to pick up a freshly charged battery. Fortunately, as I  got back and replaced the battery and got all set up, the boat was still in a perfect position in the left bottom foreground to provide a counterpoint to the sun more towards the right in the back. The jet ski would have looked better had it moved about 30 feet forward, as then I would have had all three vessels and the sun in one straight line! But the reason I did not wait for that shot was that in that case the boat closest to me would have moved forward right into the part where the water was shining with the straight unbroken line of sunset reflections. I did not want to edit out the jetski because the moment was still beautiful... even though I did not get all my ducks, I mean, all my boats in a row.
