The feeling was palpable, this was going to be a sunset to remember. A gentle wind tickled my face as I leaned out the car window…a full embrace into the fresh Mt. Lemmon air.
Desert sunsets are memorable in themselves, with the vastness of the open sky. Even that said, occasionally the excitement of promise for a spectacular golden descent of the sun.
Maneuvering into a parking space, along with other sunset enthusiasts, lent itself to a festive air. My camera lenses jostled in the backpack, as I hustled to the perfect spot with the tripod.
Time was of the essence.
God was about to put on a show that we’d not soon forget.
None of these are edited photos, Just the magnificence of a day’s closure. Pure and as they happened.
“I watched the sunset last night. And given the utter brilliance of it, I likely sat in the company of thousands who found themselves awash in its blaze of colors as well. But sadly, it is just as likely that I was surrounded by thousands of others who never saw the colors because they were awash in lesser things. And I realized that far too often I am in the company of those people. Therefore, I’ll be sitting outside tonight.” ― Craig D. Lounsbrough
