Catching an Incredible Sunset on the Tower Next to Sea

(Edited)

This post is a part of the trip to the Matsalu national park, in western Estonia, which I did in late November last year. Its the last location I managed to visit there. I had several more points of interest written up but I got short of daylight and didn't manage to visit all of them. Gotta go back there sometime in the future.

Fortunately, it was a beautiful evening and I wanted to catch a sunset. I knew there was a tower that faces in the direction of the sunset on the sea. It was a perfect place to go. I had to hurry to not miss the sunset time.

The tower is situated right next to the water and in some country house yard that is publicly accessible. The name is Tuulingu birdwatch tower. I parked a car a little ways off the country house property and took a short walk. Some beautiful views of the fields in this area.

The tower sits in a naturally gorgeous place, it's stunning.

After climbing up there I took some photos of the surrounding landscapes and wetland fields. It's forbidden to walk right next to the water line to preserve nature. It's hard to find the more perfect place to observe an evening sunset.

Look at this place, gorgeous.

On the other side is the country house and a guest house. I guess you can reserve this place and make some events there.

After the sun was just below the horizon, the clouds got lit up and it was time to take some colorful pictures of the glowing cloud action.
Below is a panorama of two vertical photos.

I am sure I will visit the same place again sometime to catch a sunset, maybe in the summertime the next time.

Wow… what a views from in the tower.
Open wide views. Sun set… water… beautiful. 😊
All great captures. Couldn’t chose one that would be a favourite, all of them are great.
Have a lovely weekend!

Wish this place was closer to my home so I could go there more often to watch the sunset. Don't really drive 150km to watch only a sunset 😀.
Thanks, you too!

These are so good. I just love what a setting does to the colors of everything around you, it's almost like walking around in a dream.

Golden hour and the surrounding landscape change the light in a certain way. Also, the color of clouds gives a different color scheme over the ground. Always different. In this case, it was absolutely beautiful.

Photography is very addicting that you won't even notice time slips away so fast. Not just all about photos but what a nice place to unwind. Thanks for sharing, nice shots as usual 👌

True, for sure a really nice place to just go and relax, while staring at the sea. Thanks!
