Sunset or Sunrise?

This is the sunrise this morning from the car in Arizona on our way to Texas (tomorrow we’ll get home). Isn’t it beautiful? It is just breathtaking to me. I think I prefer a sunrise over sunsets, but it’s hard to choose. Which do you prefer, if you had to choose to see one?

That is a beautiful and a great shot. I very rarely see a sunrise, so I will have to go with sunset. That pic is pretty special. You might be able to sell it if you wanted to.

That is beautiful. Unless we go somewhere, we can't see sunset or sunrise from the house. Trees block sunrises and other houses block sunsets here.

Same with me at home. It's a bit disappointing for sure.

@kareng I do miss seeing sunsets. I never really paid attention to sunrises at our last house, either. We had trees on the East side of it, too.

Ooh, that’s beautiful. I do tend to prefer the sunsets, mainly because you have to be up early in the morning to see the sunrise, and that’s not for me. Have a safe trip home!

Thanks! I’m an early riser, but also I’m a night owl. So I tend to see both.

Beautiful sunrise, sometimes the clouds give an even more dramatic picture. I like them both, but I also prefer a sunrise.

That sunrise really is gorgeous. For me it's sunsets. We have some really beautiful ones here. I can't say much about our sunrises though because I sleep through them

That's a keeper photo. Poetic. Your Dad is driving? He must be exhausted.

My BIL is driving. It’s just me, my sister, BIL, and the kids. I think the kids have pretty much exhausted them. They always get up early at home, but there is more to keep them occupied at home.

I think the road makes it different. Just kidding, I know what you mean.

That’s an incredible picture!! So pretty. I hope you can get a copy and frame it for a keepsake for yourself. It’s breathtaking! I would pick sunsets. They are often vibrant and blazing with simply stunning colors. I do have to say this sunrise is the same though. You were definitely in the right place at the right time!!

Wow - the colors and all - must've been quite spectacular ! I don't think I have a preference honestly . . . both are part of our life cycle . . . that we either woke up to or have lived another day .

That is indeed beautiful. I admit I am not usually up to see the sunrise …..I would say I would choose a sunset as the favourite though anyway…..especially when we are at the beach ….with the reflection on the sea …. Stunning.
