LIFESTYLE NEWS

  • Andrew West, an award winning photographer from the Naples Daily News and The News-Press, offers tips for capturing vivid Southwest Florida sunset photos by advising visitors to scout locations early and underexpose their shots for richer colors. He recommends using a clear foreground element such as a pier to add depth and cautions about looking directly at the sun—steps that help capture the best twilight images during peak tourist season.  News-Press
