Sunset is beautiful no matter where we witness it. This one was photographed against the city background. The Sun is seen slowly sinking into the water tank of a nearby house. I took this picture with my phone camera from my terrace. As you can see, my photographic skills are very basic. Yet our nearest star presented a pretty picture when it was setting in the western horizon.
Sunrise is a prettier sight in Chennai as it rises from the sea side. I would dedicate a post for sunrise if I wake up in time to photograph one.

Amazing view. I would say you are very good at capturing pictures.
Not always. This one turned out be good by accident.
I just go to sleep right before sunrise, so sunsets are my favorite
Lol. Don’t sleep so late. Not good for your health.
I love both. To me sunrises have a different kind of beauty, the coolness of the morning , the sweet songs of birds, smell of blooming flowers etc, while sunsets can be dramatic.
I’m with you. I don’t have a preference. I love sunrises and sunsets.
I know. The mood is much better during sunrise.
I love both of them in equal measure. But I would say that I have more pictures with sunset!
:-). Even for me, it is easier capturing sunsets because we are certainly awake during sunset.
I would have to say sunrise. The dawn seems more tranquil than the dusk, plus in the summer I have a hard time making it up past sunset. lol. I am an early to rise and early to bed person. Great shot here.
That is a nice habit Kim. I am late to bed and still an early rise. Have to live with sleep problems. 🙁
I like both sunrise and sunset, no preference, your photo is beautiful
I am glad you liked the photo.
as my website is called Afraid of Sunlight, you should not be surprised when I say that sunset is my favorite
That is a good one Alex. Lol.
glad you liked my joke
That’s a pretty nice shot you got there.
I am glad you liked it Alex.
That sun sits there without any fanfare as it happens normally with so many colours thrown around
A rare photo.
Thanks for your support and your keen observations.
I have also been at Marina beach during sunsets
Great to hear that Suny. An evening spent well in Marina with Sundal, the local snacks, is always awesome.
I mostly spent my evenings watching toward the setting sun but boats up the beach having lovebirds blocked my way… you know what I mean .)
I love the sunset. I too do pictures with a smartphone. I think the pictures are just as pretty ?
Thank you Vidocka. We no longer have to worry about having a good camera thanks to smartphones.
Beautifully photographed. I love both but prefer sunsets.
Thank you so much Carol. From our city, sunrise looks better as it raises from the seaside.
That sounds absolutely beautiful. I have better views of the sunset.
Very nice picture, my friend … when do you have a tennis tournament in Chennaiju?
Chennai Open is no longer happening. Will let you know if there are other tournaments happening.
And why not, my friend … it made a lot of money for the organization
I have some special memories associated with sunset
Great to hear that. It is always special to connect our memorable moments with a certain time.
