In my nearly 5 years here, I have never seen sunsets as beautiful as the above. You see, it’s sunrises that are easily seen from the beach.  I have sunset shots taken here, but they’re always of a colorful sky, not of the setting sun.

This sunset is different precisely because of the perfectly rounded sun. It was what struck me the moment I saw it.

Here’s my favorite shot.

Pardon the photo quality.  Mira II, my Canon Powershot G12 camera, conked out on a recent trip to Sagada and I’m still familiarizing myself with my Sony RX 100 II.
