Just wondering, looking at an image how to figure out is it Sunrise or Sunset....any thoughts anyone?
Sirpixxalot, I stayed up all night one night to figure out where the sun went.........and finally it dawned on me.
Looks like #1 is sunrise because the clouds are backlit
What makes the difference? If you tell me it's a sunset I'll believe you. You took the photo and I wasn't there. It would maybe make a diference if I were a sailor....red sky at night sailors delight and all.
1. Sunrise (You have to get out of bed early to get that pciture)
2. Sunset (Sometimes you have to stay up later to photo these)
Roger was pretty much spot on. Characteristics of the atmosphere change as the sun heats it throughout the day; this more noticable in an urban enviroment, what with auto traffic, etc.
It's no accident that pros do so much of their outdoor shooting between 6:00am and 9:00am . . .

It looks like everyone as confused as I am in differentiating Sunset from Sunrise, lets a take test tell me which one is Sunset and which one is Sunrise?
Is there an answer to this mystery?
Hi folks, thank you for your input. It seems that I am not the only one who is confused about Sunrise or Sunset! we are all in the same boat!
However I did notice that Sunset seems warmer (light) in winter and stronger (shinier) in Summer if that make any sense or it just me.
I guess the only way tell exactly what it is, is to look at EXIF data of the image to check what time shot is taken or ask the photographer who took the shot.
First image I posted is Sunset at lake.
Second one is Sunrise on the ocean.
Conclusion: If you think its a Sunset then it is a Sunset, if you think it is Sunrise then it is Sunrise.
Honestly, I enjoy the thread... thank you all.

Obviously not ALL of us. There was no question about the two you posted, hence my immediate correct response.

Red haze in the west (where the sun sets, on Earth anyway) is from dust in the atmosphere, and could be natural or 'pollution', not that dirt in the air isn't pollution already. The old saying about "red sky at night, sailor's delight" is usually accurate for these reasons: 1) most weather patterns move west to east. 2) red sky (e.g., DUST) indicates dryer air to the west, which portends good weather. Ozone and other photochemical smog tends to be yellow/brownish. A great deal of the 'quality' of your sunset depends on what's happening west of wherever you are.
