Sundown






Bangalore: These snaps I have clicked on 13th December 2008 between 17:28 and 17:45 from Lingarajapuram, Bangalore. It was on a fine Saturday evening. I just thought of clicking sunset, but I was not sure that it will be success with my small Sony digital camera (H10).


The night has a thousand eyes,
And the day but one;
Yet the light of the bright world dies with the dying sun
. Francis William Bourdillion.

Sunset or sundown is the daily disappearance of the Sun below the horizon in the west as a result of Earth's rotation
