Few sights are as familiar, and at the same time as emotional, as an evening sunset. The anxieties of the nastiest days can be calmed and forgotten during a few minutes of relaxed contemplation as you watch the sun slide below the horizon.
My nephew, Greg, sent me a lovely picture of a recent sunset in Key Largo, Florida.
I immediately remembered a very different sunset that I photographed from my patio in 2006, and sent it to him. If you look closely, you can see the evening star, Venus, near the center about 1/4 of the way down from the top.
Each of these vastly different settings brings a wonderful feeling of peace and tranquility.
