For this challenge I'd like to see your images of Sunrises or Sunsets. There is nothing like watching the sun come up with it's promise of a new day and watching it set with gratitude for the day. Please join me in sharing your images of Sunrises and Sunsets.
These 3 sunset images were all taken in November 2020 at Assateague Island State Park on the mainland side. We like to fish here.
Very nice set GiGi. Torn between #1 and #2 as a favorite.

I like the composition on the last photo. The angled perspective adds visual interest. However, all three photos seem a little "flat". Blue hour and golden hour photography are favorites for many photographers. And while shooting toward the rising or setting sun can provide dramatic shots its not always the best way to go. Here are three examples. The first photo was taken during the fading light of the golden hour and a full 90 degrees away from the sunset. The second photo was taken during the last few minutes of the blue hour and directly toward where the sun had set. The last photo was done toward a rising sun with an approaching storm along a beach. All would be considered sunrise or sunset photos but also classified a blue hour or golden hour photography.
All are beautiful but I really like #2!
