Indian ocean on our way to the Persian Gulf for Desert Storm.

Honestly though we get some great ones here in SE NC, and sunrises too. Something about being only a few miles from the ocean I guess.

Just a cellphone pic at work.  The sun was way brighter, but the auto settings on the phone gave me this.  I thought it was cool.

When we weren't swamped by weather, sunsets in Patagonia were beautiful.

But, stuff around the house has also been nice.

Seen it a few times - pretty cool.  Not my pic but...



My other favorite is off the Gulf coast of south FL.  Only saw the green flash once though.

Sunset over the coast range in the Northwest during the summer. It's far enough north that the twilight lingers, and sound (and quiet) seems to carry forever. A few days after a forest fire, after most of the smoke has cleared, there are some blazing orange sunsets.

Drink a beer, and watch the sun sink slowly into the west over the farmland and mountains and forests.

17 years old, manning the helm of a 144 foot Barkentine schooner, making north in the Gulf stream, and the sun was going down.

Mount St. Helens had erupted a couple weeks previous, and the sky was eeriily yellow, and the seas looked purplish, violet-colored almost.

It all looked so incredible that I actually pinched myself to make sure that what I was seeing was actually real.

I was just a kid, but even so I knew that life only had so many days and only so many moments of life like that, and that I was very, very lucky to have it.

St. Regis Resort in Kauai...or Mama's Fish House in Maui.  Indescribably beautiful.

However, I do love summer sunsets in AR rice country.

I watched the sunrise from the edge of a sunflower field in Kansas. Was napping with the SO at the time when we were diving to CO.

Got a little up the tiniest hill at a rest stop, and we watched it.

I totally fucked the shit out of her while it was happening.

Driving up the Oregon coast. 2003, I think.

The sunset was indescribably gorgeous, but what was really impressive was seeing the green flash. It was an incredible explosion of green light just as the sun dipped below the waves.

I recall beautiful sunsets after Mt Pinatubo erupted, but may have just paying attention more.
The glowing cilffs in Utah when you are in the shade while the cliffs are still getting hit with sun.

Prettiest? Floating on the Chesapeake, on the far shore off of the Pungoteague.

Most memorable? The first time I witnessed the green flash. Oahu.
