I prefer them to sunrises. Also, for some reason, they make me emotional. I can't explain it but they are so great they fill my soul with awe, wonder and peace every time.
we get some beautiful sunsets in Oklahoma. They say it’s because of the dust from west Texas that is in the atmosphere, it makes for a lot of beautiful colors and patterns. Watching the sun set when there’s a lot of colors is kind of amazing, it can change quickly. I would love to have a tree house with a deck facing the west where I could sit and take photos or videos of them sometimes.
@SW-User It is sometimes you see pink, coral, scarlet, golden yellow, blue, violet and gray all in the same sky. It’s like a watercolor painting that changes by the minute.

@SW-User Pretty. It looks similar to the sea here 🌊
Me too!! I want to love sunrises, the imagery of a new day, a fresh start. Truth is though, I am NOT a morning person. So I see sunsets as the close to something beautiful. A show of the 1440 minutes we get and to make them valuable. It washes away the days mistakes and promises a new chance to do better.
It's beautiful that if I had gone slight down the shore of the Great Lake I was at today I may have seen a very similar sight. If I had stayed long enough, I feel the rocks in a certain spot may have just been very similar. Like I may have caught the sun reflecting over waves gently and almost hitting the same spot in rock. Small world.
I prefer them to sunrises as well. Sunsets come with color and patterns unlike anything else, especially against cloud. So visually dramatic. Hence the emotions they conjure.
Same.. sunrise can be nice for me once like every few years or so.. I prefer the setting sun..

@AuRevoir They give me closure & comfort. Idk how to describe that feeling well. Also, in my part of the world, sunsets are beautifully complemented with the mighty ocean. So that's another advantage.
Yes I agree they are stunning and easy to fall asleep to

@SW-User I never sleep during a sunset 😇 but you are right, last time my nephew fell asleep undisturbed shortly after sunset. It does have a calming effect.
@SW-User you need a break 😢 i think you like sunsets bcz everything shuts down by that time. Fuck the system. Also we arabs get destroyed by morning and noon sun. It's too damn hot here hbu?

@Hassan Earlier this month I was at a town where it was unbearably hot but now that I'm back home it's warm.
Idk, I think sunset matches my general mood really well and makes me ponder over life in depth.
