Here's one. The best sunset in my neighborhood

And that shadow is me!

Not sure where I have photo but Truman Annex or NAS Key West is pretty up there for sun down.

I just went through my photos and I've got quite a few - too many to post all at once, so I'll try for one per day. First up:

Fair Haven, NY, 2019

This a tough selection, because there's so many good ones...I might have to choose different ones, depending on mood!

This is my most popular photo on Flickr, captured from 10,000 feet up over Palm Beach County, Florida (2012):

I'm partial to this one because it's nice to be home for the week (2019):

Turning towards Atlanta one September morning - not exactly sure, but I get some really great morning colors right on the cusp of September and October (2019):

This is one of my favorite sunsets; flying home somewhere between Atlanta and Huntsville in 2014:

Sunset from a parking garage in Boca Raton, from 2009:

I-75 on Alligator Alley in 2012:

I was planning on posting one per evening since almost all of my pictures are sunsets (not sunrises)... but for the one sunrise in my collection, it's only right to post it in the morning:

Not sure if I have photos to add later, but when I sat out on the end of Artists' Point in Grand Marais, MN to see the sun rise I believe in 2012 or 2014. Felt like I could reach out and squeeze it with my fingers.

We had hoped back in 2007 to see the sun ise in Lubec, ME, but it stormed that morning.

Location: Horsfall Beach, north of North Bend OR. Back in the Eighties, a group of us were out there at sunset. At one point everything turned blue including the sand. Temps were so high at that moment that I had to take off my t-shirt, which is unheard of when being on a south coast of Oregon beach at that hour. I have never seen such a thing before or since.

Horsfall Beach is named after a doctor who lived here long ago.

My wife took this picture last Friday on southbound I-85 approaching Exit 206 in North Carolina. We were on our way to Durham for the NHL Stadium Series game in Raleigh the following night and a sunset like this was really nice after a grey, gloomy, rainy day. It's not the "most spectacular" sunset I've seen by any means, but it was a real mood-lifter on a day like that (plus the drive took a total of six hours with stops due to traffic, using Route 1 between Aquia and I-295 due to incidents on I-95, and a big crash in Ashland that forced a further detour).
