One question, what does the photographer mean when he says 'don't forget to look behind you'?

Hehe, yes definitely very good advice, and great results there too!
Lautreamont, is this a tease? In case not I'll spell it out: While everyone is concentrating on the main event (in this case, the setting sun), make a point of looking the other way. You might just see something worth photographing—a reflected pink sky, or perhaps the expression on an onlookers face, or something totally unexpected (Elvis, alien spaceship, an honest politician, etc.)
