I'm not sure if this is a sunrise or sunset - I can't ever tell....there must be some science behind it.
The orange and blackness of it feel sombre and moody a bit, yet calm and peaceful at the same time. I can hear the waves and sea birds. It makes me feel calm.
I've seen similar sunsets, although like others have said they are all different. But the dense color in this one is reminicsent of sunsets we'd see in the country where we used to live. Bright oranges and bright pinks to red then the darkness came and the last light was orange.
Thanks for answering my questions, it actually was a sunset, but it would be cool to know how to distinguish one just by looking at it
Usually (but, not always) Sunsets have more color, red in particular, more particles in the air in the evening. However, not knowing the landscape of a place, you wouldn't necessarily be able to tell the difference. That is my experience.
