Sunsets always make me want to grab the paintbox and get to work. No matter how the copy falls short of the Creator's glorious display, I want to capture that moment in time when the sun sinks. Especially if it's sinking over a sea with brooding clouds on the horizon.
I'm sure this is some kind of metaphor for the brevity of human life, the enjoyment of living in the moment, or some such. Not sure. If it were possible to capture each beach scene to sustain me for days at the desk!
I'd like to tell my students: save your money, see the world! There is so much beauty. But your eyes have to be open.
There! At-home sunrises aren't bad, either.
