Sunset, also known as sundown, is the daily disappearance of the Sun below the horizon due to Earth's rotation. As viewed from everywhere on Earth (except the North and South poles), the equinox Sun sets due west at the moment of both the spring and autumn equinoxes. As viewed from the Northern Hemisphere, the Sun sets to the northwest (or not at all) in the spring and summer, and to the southwest in the autumn and winter; these seasons are reversed for the Southern Hemisphere.
The time of sunset is defined in astronomy as the moment when the upper limb of the Sun disappears below the horizon. Near the horizon, atmospheric refraction causes sunlight rays to be distorted to such an extent that geometrically the solar disk is already about one diameter below the horizon when a sunset is observed.
Sunset is distinct from twilight, which is divided into three stages. The first one is civil twilight, which begins once the Sun has disappeared below the horizon, and continues until it descends to 6 degrees below the horizon. The second phase is nautical twilight, between 6 and 12 degrees below the horizon. The third phase is astronomical twilight, which is the period when the Sun is between 12 and 18 degrees below the horizon. Dusk is at the very end of astronomical twilight, and is the darkest moment of twilight just before night. Finally, night occurs when the Sun reaches 18 degrees below the horizon and no longer illuminates the sky.
Locations further north than the Arctic Circle and further south than the Antarctic Circle experience no full sunset or sunrise on at least one day of the year, when the polar day or the polar night persists continuously for 24 hours.

I initially used Nikon ViewNXi to export a TIFF image with minimal processing of only a landscape setting and white balance. I then worked with DxO PhotoLab 3 to finish up post-processing by making adjustments to saturation, brightness and contrast.

One of the more unusual sea stacks to have survived north of Tongaporutu. It remains relatively unchanged since i was here about 18months ago.
Thats Mount Taranaki to the right in the distance.
No doubt the locals will have a name for this rock but haven't had the chance to ask one...

This is a beautiful view of Sighnaghi, a picturesque hilltop town in Georgia’s Kakheti region, also known as the City of Love. In the background rises the St. Stephen Church Tower, a striking landmark that has stood above the rooftops for centuries. From the balcony of Abramichi Guest House, an enchanting scene unfolds. As the sun slowly sinks behind the rolling hills of Sighnaghi, the clouds turn soft shades of pink and gold – as if the sky itself pauses to breathe. The church of St. Stephen stands tall and silent, a timeless witness to history, prayer, and the lives of generations past. Perched high on a hill, Sighnaghi offers sweeping views over the Alazani Valley, with the majestic Caucasus Mountains on the horizon. The town is surrounded by four kilometers of defensive walls with 23 watchtowers, built in the 18th century to protect against invasions. The tower of St. Stephen served not only as a religious site but also as a watchtower, keeping a vigilant eye over the valley. With a glass of local Kakhetian wine in hand, we savor the serene silence. Below us, the valley is bathed in a warm evening glow, while the sky gradually darkens and the first stars begin to appear. It is one of those moments when time seems to stand still – only the peace, the view, and the soft breeze whispering through the trees remain. When night falls, the sky turns into a sea of stars, bright and untouched, far away from the glow of city lights. Sighnaghi breathes an almost timeless charm – a place where history, nature, and the simple pleasure of a glass of wine come together as one harmonious whole.
High above the Alazani Valley lies Sighnaghi, a charming hilltop town in Georgia’s Kakheti region, known as the City of Love. From the balcony of Abramichi Guest House, the view unfolds like a painting – golden evening light, the historic St. Stephen Church Tower rising above the rooftops, and the distant Caucasus Mountains. As the sun sets, silence settles over the valley, the sky darkens, and countless stars appear. It’s a place where history, nature, and the simple joy of a glass of Kakhetian wine blend into perfect harmony.
Dit is een prachtige opname van Sighnaghi, een schilderachtig heuvelstadje in de Georgische regio Kacheti, ook wel bekend als de Stad van de Liefde. Op de achtergrond prijkt de St. Stephen Church Tower, een markant baken dat al eeuwenlang boven de daken uitsteekt. Vanaf het balkon van Abramichi Guest House ontvouwt zich een betoverend tafereel. Terwijl de zon langzaam wegzakt achter de heuvels van Sighnaghi, kleuren de wolken zachtroze en goud – alsof de hemel zelf even ademhaalt. De kerk van St. Stephen rijst statig op, een stille getuige van geschiedenis, gebed en het leven van generaties. Sighnaghi ligt hoog op een heuvel en biedt een weids uitzicht over de Alazani-vallei, met daarachter de imposante Kaukasusbergen. De stad wordt omringd door vier kilometer stadsmuren met 23 wachttorens, gebouwd in de 18e eeuw ter verdediging tegen invallen. De toren van St. Stephen diende niet alleen religieuze doeleinden, maar ook als wachttoren, waar vanuit men de horizon in de gaten hield. Met een glas lokale Kachetiaanse wijn in de hand genieten we hier van een serene stilte. Beneden ons baadt de vallei in een warme avondgloed, terwijl de lucht langzaam donkerder wordt en de eerste sterren voorzichtig verschijnen. Het is zo’n moment waarop de tijd lijkt stil te staan – alleen de rust, het uitzicht en de zachte bries die door de bomen strijkt. Wanneer de nacht valt, verandert de hemel in een zee van sterren, helder en ongerept, ver weg van het schijnsel van stadslichten. Sighnaghi ademt een bijna tijdloze charme – een plek waar geschiedenis, natuur en het eenvoudige genot van een glas wijn samenkomen tot één harmonieus geheel.

A view looking to the northwest at Sunset Point in Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park. The sun had almost completely dropped behind the distant horizon except for a portion of the skies brighten up by its light. Most of the rest of this national park setting was in early twilight and quickly getting darker. My thinking during the time prior was to meter this image by adjusting the shutter speed such that I wouldn't blow any highlights present in the image. I knew that I would later be able to pull out any of the shadowed areas later in post-production. As I looked at the image in DxO PhotoLab 3 that I decided to work with the NEF image first in Aurora HDR Pro. I could make an HDR image from that single NEF one and work with an exported TIFF in DxO PhotoLab 3. I found that HDR software was better able to work with the shadowed areas and keep the highlights as captured. I later worked with control points in DxO PhotoLab 3 and then made some adjustments to bring out the contrast, saturation and brightness I wanted for the final image.
