As the sun sets, the sky illuminates with soft colors. It brings a sense of calmness as we start to wind down the day and transition to our time of rest. The reflection of the sun on the water strengthens the feeling of light and the objects in the foreground become  silhouetted making the scene dynamic. Something that is so interesting to me about the light when the sun sets is how quick it happens. I walked across this bridge in Rome and just happened to turn around and for just a few moments the sun created this beautiful view. The colors in nature heighten and become intensified at this point in time, and create some of the most gorgeous hues and values.
