Sunset, Plymouth, Massachusetts, USA

What is it about sunset?  People of all ages, all walks of life, all genders, all nations - all of us - man and womankind, will stand and pause a moment to behold a sunset of spectacular beauty - perhaps it is the unspoken suggestion of hope and beauty and good and god and the sheer  majesty of the view that grabs us all. 

We humans have created many things of wonder, greatness, and beauty on this earth - but none to rival the awesome spectacle of a beautiful sunset.  We are powerful but we cannot arrange the layers of clouds, and the light, and the dust, and the moisture to suit us on command; we cannot arrange the precise location where all these elements combine into an image that leaves us all together, briefly, speechless at the grandeur.



View from Massachusetts Route 3, Exit 5, west of Shops at Five at 4:30pm EST.
