It’s my favourite time of the day: when the sun sets and the ensuing twilight. A dazzling display of colour, then a serene interlude before the darkness sets in. Wherever I am, I always make it a point to stop for a moment if the weather is good and enjoy the sunset. They never cease to amaze me, and I often find their colours and majesty absolutely inspiring. Countless photos have been taken of this magnificent natural phenomenon around the world and I’ve taken my fair share. I’ve put together a collage of sunset photos I’ve taken around the world. This is my special tribute to that great wonder of our fair planet: sunsets.

Hi Ross,
Thanks for your comment. I totally agree! I’ve seen so many amazing sunrises/sets around the world that it’s impossible to say what the best spots are. In any case, they’ll always be an incredible wonder to witness!
Cheers,
Keith
With reference to SUNrise/set it is actually NOT easy to say which place has the “best” sunrise/sunset as there are some determining factors to selecting which one(s) are the best. This involves the time, what the temperature of the day/evening is, the clouds that contribute to their beauty or lack of it, what season of the year, etc. Anyhow, a SUNrise/set is always energising giving us all Vitamin D.
Since there’s only one sun. I am allowed to choose them all, no? But the Beach of Brazilia is maybe the nr 1 for me (people playing on the beach) superpics!
Wow- what a great collection of sunsets from around the world. Stunning.

Thanks! (trying to figure out how to get more traffic to it!)
Very nice sunsets Keith; Santorini (Greece) and the island of Cyprus have also fantastic sunsets!!!!!!!!!
Sunset is my favorite time of day as well. I enjoyed quite a few recently in Jamaica that were just stunning, as well as earlier this year in Mexico, Bahamas and Barbados. Next year, I want to see the sun set in Indonesia, Australia and Japan.
[…] nothing more enchanting than sitting at the pool lounge, cocktail in hand and admiring the fabulous sunset. Enjoying the sunset from the pool […]

Great photos!!!
Fantastic photos – my favourite has to be the st lucia one. There is just something about the silhouette of a palm tree against a sunset!
So beautiful. Just a pity you didn’t get one from Negril Jamaica
Bali is my 2nd home 🙂
i even can still recognize that corn vendor in Jimbaran, he always sell the corn in front of the beach – sea food restaurants there…
Indonesia is dangerously beautiful…
Thanks for sharing 🙂

Hi Erica,
Thanks for your comment. It’s really tough to pick one but of the pictures above, I would have to choose the ones in Jimbaran. It was simply magic!
Cheers,
Keith
I’d never say no to admiring a sunset. Beautiful pictures! I love the ones from Jimbaran, Bali.
Am just curious, which sunset is your favorite? Is it even possible to pick only one among so many?
