Blazing ball of fire.


No matter how beautiful a picture of a sunset it, I guarantee, it does zero justice to the real thing.  For me, I think it might be a sunset that most fails in photography.  Granted they make good pics, but the rest is missing.  The moment of it.  The awe.  The feeling of being there.  We become accustomed to them, and really only notice the great ones, but when we do, they really capture in a way that digital representation just can't.


 Same goes for the sun itself.  I couldn't look at it when I took this picture.  You can't tell by looking, but it was HUGE.  I mean just fucking big.  It didn't look far away.  It looked like it was sitting on the planet.  Ready to consume the buildings, and cars, and people.  You just don't get that from a pic.  I still like it though.
