Dawn and dusk: beautiful moments of the day...

Well Mou u r right about those moments, they are really lovely msay be this is reason that made people worship them and to reply to ur question, i am sure dawn and dusk can be distinguished easly. and light of sun rise and sun set is differnt and if u r regular viewer of both times then u can distingush easily take care

Hi mimpi1911! I don't think I will be able to distinguish dusk from dawn if I will be confined in a room beyond date and especially if I will be deprived of the time. Maybe if I will be sitting and gazing on it longer,I will see if the sun is rising or if it will be setting..then that's the only way for me to distinguish if its dawn or dusk. Other than that, I don't think I can...except for the kind of feeling I have which I can not really explain why. For whenever I witness the dawn, I can't help the feeling of so much hope and excitement..once, I had my hand outstretched while welcoming the dawn, trying to catch all the blessings being showered while I was gazing the horizon. It was a special feeling of hope. And when dusk comes, I can't help but feel so thankful for another day that I have lived and a little sad that it has ended especially when I felt extra happy within that day. take care dear friend and hoping we will all have beautiful moments from dusk til dawn. lovelots..faith210

Indeed they are two of the most beautiful moments in the day. Each having its own significance. How often i have got myself into a trance like situation enjoying the scenery and the visual effects created by these wonderful events. Be it a hillside, a beach or in nature each having thier own scenic magnification of the beauty. And yes if we were in a room with no sense of time at all, it would be so difficult to distinguish beween the two.

Yes, undoubtedly dawn and dusk are the most fascinating moments of a day and it looks awesome to observe those particular moments. Although dawn and dusk come everyday, but we do not get to see it on most of the occasions, due to our preoccupations. For example, now a days winters are going on in Delhi, so it is difficult to get up very early in the morning and enjoy the moments of dawn. However, it is practically possible in summers here. I feel that I have best observed the moments of dawn and dusk, while travelling in trains. When one gets up early in the morning, before dawn one can sense the scene outside, when it slowly starts getting dawn. From a train, the vision gets wider and you can enjoy the moments of dawn. Also watching dawn and observing the sun setting process from a moving train, is also treat to watch. How slowly the sun disappears and descends down looks something extra-ordinary. Thereafeter the moments of dusk are worth observing. Yes, you are right if we are confined to a room, we will surely be deprieved of these two wonderful moments of the nature. Very Good Post!

Yes you are right these are the two wonderful moments that comes each day. When I was a student I used to enjoy both every day except the rainy season but now I am working I miss those moment a lot. But I will thank god atleast I can enjoy these moments twice in a week in the weekends lol.

Hi mimpi,yes its wonderful to watch the sun rising and setting....From my balcony I can infact get a good view of the sun rise and sunset everyday,and I never get tired of watching the sunrise every day.....Its such a wonderful feeling to wake up and stand in the balcony,breathe in some fresh air and to watch the sun rising ,heralding another mysterious day......filling me with wander as to what it will hold for me.....And I watch the sunset also with mixed feelings.....and leaves me wondering what the blanket of darkness will hide in its folds as it becomes dark...

Hi mimpi.. Really you are correct.. I prefer to enjoy the peace and serenity of the twilight than of dusk and dawn.

Yes, those two times of day are my most favorite and awe-inspiring. There is a goofy old America love song about "A room without windows" where the guy is mooning on about wanting to shut his girlfriend away with him in a space where he can see only her, and that song give me the shudders because I don't care how infatuated two people might be with one another, I want windows and lots of them! When hubby closes the shades I always go around opening them again. I don't want to miss any of the light of day.

They are beautiful times of the day. Such tranquility comes with them. For us, the birds signalling the start of the new day is wonderful. The Laughing Kookaburra is numerous in our neighbourhood, and you can't help but wake up laugjing along with them. Then there is the end of the day. The same Kookaburra's laugh us into the dark, wishing us pleasant dreams. yes, apart from the mosquitos, dawn and dusk are certainly wonderful times of day.

These precious moments are really one of a kind. Sure they do come at least once in a day but you can say that no two dusk/dawn are exactly the same. It would be overwhelming to try and capture each and everyone of those moments but when these already inspiring moments are even made special by an event in our lives like spending it with loved ones, they will never be forgotten.

Absolutely!! They are my favorite parts of the day. They are both a new beginning for the next part of the day and the shadows and sunlight interspersed with each other are artwork!

Yes they are......both magical moments in a day and like you I feel great whenever am having moments w/ each one in a day. I like sunset/dusk because I like seeing the sun fading away and it suggests another night time....another sleep. I also like it in dawn (although am not really that much awake) because it suggests another beginning of a new day. And we should always be thankful each moment having them.

Hi mimpi! That is a good question! I don't know if I would be able to distinguish the difference between the dawn and the dusk! I must say that I pay more attention to the dusk so I might be able to distinguish that. But, if you lose track of time you get disoriented so that has to be taken into consideration too! So I really don't know if it is possible after a certain length of time to be able to tell if it is morning or evening!

Most of the time when I am working and I get to go on the hikes, we get to appreciate the dusk and sunset. Now I also get to appreciate the dawn. I once woke up and from Boyfriend's window saw the usual big oak tree but with the horizon oh-so-beautiful. That got me out of bed right away as I just got so blown away.

They are definitely both very enjoyable and magical times of the day. Out with the old and in with the new, with both being picturesque! I am never up early enough to see the dawn though. lol. Without supporting tools like a clock or something and if we were to remove the ability to experience either of them physically, I think we would end up getting into cycles that revolved more around bodily needs than anything else. Sleep and eating for example. We have become preprogrammed by default to embrace each day as a 24 hour period that begins and ends with both. Take them away and time also; and we would end up reprogrammed with different patterns.

I am what one might call a morning person. The best time of day for me is the dawning, as the night sky starts to lighten and the horizon displays a red/orange color. Whilst I like the night sky, the morning somehow feels fresher to me :-) Derek

Hi Mimipi, Oh yes these moments are very beautiful and very precious I agree. Huggles. Ellie:D

Yes I do agree these two moments give you the best feeling. I especially like dusk just sitting and watching the sun go down it's so beautiful. I think we are very forunate that we have two lovely sceneries to see each and every day.

Oh that was a nice way to describe it.. I am too mesmerized by it, specially dawn. I don't what in it but when ever I got the chance to see dawn, there is a feeling of calmness that envelops me. There is also a warmth touch that gives my heart a skip. I really love dawn..

yes these are the most beautiful moments of a day, I like them so much, the sight of dawn & dusk gives some peace of mind. One beautiful site one should never miss out in a day which reminds us that a day is getting over or getting started by
