Dood’s viewpoint from a different point of view
Originally clicked and uploaded by – Pratosh Dwivedi – 18th June’08I really love the patterns the orange evening sun sometimes makes with the dark clouds trying to shield it from the earth. Sometimes they depict sheer beauty and an amazig work of art by nature, while at others it seems to a big struggle between the two elements of lord Indra.
This is one such struggle I captured at dusk.

It is really amazing that how many different shades of the same sunset you can see from different angles and different elevations. At the same point in time the color of the sunset will look different from the ground level and completely different from a terrace. As you reduce the elevation, the color starts getting darker and more on the red side.
I saw the same thing while landing in Mexico city. When the plane started its decent, I could the see the bright yellow sun at the horizon. Within seconds as the plane started descending, the color of the sun as well as that of the sky started changing. In the next 1 min as my plane landed, I could the horizon covered in a blanket of dark red light.

The sun was already gone, the sky was all grey, slowly covering itself up with the dark blanket of night. These trees, obidiently standing in a straight queue were giving a pictursque view at the horizon. Standing at a lonely place at such a time during late evening & admiring mother nature at its best was nothing less than a silent melody
