No matter how many sunrises and sunsets I have experienced, they remain one of nature’s wonders to watch. Now, with shorter days, I’m back to looking out for sunrises and sunsets to enjoy, and, when time allows, to take pictures of. Most of the time, I prefer having clouds in the sky, ideally high enough for the sun to light them up. If the picture is taken near any body of water, little to no wind enhances the quality of the image. In the end, when we take a picture, it’s a personal preference, as we try to capture the feelings we experience while watching what is happening in front of us. After taking thousands of pictures of sunrises and sunsets, I still find that images fall short compared to the experience in real time. However, the images I keep provide enough memory of the moments to go out again and again.
