Final Round on sunrise and sunset.
Sunrise. Gatlinburg TN, 2018, with a small patch of fog.
Sunrise in a parking lot somewhere in Jacksonville, 2023
Sunset at the George Crady Fishing Pier on Amelia Island, FL. This island is about an hour north of Jacksonville, tucked into the northeast corner of the state. This bridge offers some of the best “fishing without a boat” opportunities in the area.
Sunset and Moonrise, Peaks Island, Maine 2007.
Sunset Gatlinburg TN, 2018. fwiw, this is my favorite of all the Gatlinburg photos I have.
Sunset from the Lodge at the North Rim of the Grand Canyon, 2005. The North Rim is really far from everything, which helps explain why only about 10% of visitors to this National Park choose this as their destination. The North Rim is about a thousand feet higher in elevation, also.
Sunset at the North Rim of the Grand Canyon, 2005. This view is a 90 degree pivot to the right from the previous picture. Arizona is really flat in that part of the state.
Sunrise somewhere in central Florida, 2022.
Sunrise at the Vintner’s Reserve, Marlborough New Zealand, 2004.
Peaks Island, Maine, during the sunset.

Very pretty.

Very nice! The picture of the Grand Canyon is breath taking.
MagdaInBlack
Lovely pictures, thank you. Sure beats the snow we’re having in Chicago this morning.

Nice pictures! I have a sunset pic almost identical to the one from Amelia Island, taken at Ft Clinch State Park, nearby. You’d think you’d have to be on the west side of Florida for good sunsets but there are good places to see them on the Atlantic side too.
Spanish Moss
Love the concept for your series and the gorgeous photos! The top half of the Grand Canyon pic looks like a painting.
Albatrossity
Thank you!
JeanneT
Nice to see the sunrise/sunset multiple times this morning (and yesterday) – thank you!

I was a kid when we visited the Grand Canyon. We went first to the North Rim and then to the South Rim. I loved the North, hated the South.
Torrey
Really amazing pictures. I agree with Spanish Moss about the concept for the collection.

You have whirled us around the world with this installment! All so lovely, and hi to Spidey! You’ve convinced me that Gatlinburg is the place to be at dawn and dusk. Certainly I’ll never forget yesterday’s “eyes in the skies”!

Peaks Island, Maine! Never been, but … years ago walking my kid to school, there was a slightly younger girl who would I would encounter on the walk. One chilly, foggy morning, she inhaled deeply and proclaimed, “It’s just like Peaks Island!” She’s quite the woman now, getting a PhD studying absinthe or something.

Beautiful – oh my god, the spider web – love that.

Stunning!

The New Zealand sunrise is gorgeous! It’s like the sky is on fire. I’m really enjoying this concept!

Ah. The spider’s web. With the spider enjoying the sunset with you!
