Postcards for the weekend: sunrise, sunset



This weekend the 'Postcards for the weekend' theme is sunrise, sunset.

I think no photo can capture the sunrise / sunset as we see - and feel! - it in real. Anyhow, postcard makers do their best to approach reality as much as possible. Whether they use photoshop or not, I think sunrise and sunset make pretty postcard pictures.



The postcard above shows the lighthouse of Ameland, an island in the Wadden Sea. The postcard below I received from Ibiza, one of the Balearic islands.

The famous 'Sower' by Vincent van Gogh:



On the painting 'Herfst' ('Autumn') by Leo Gestel the sun might have been rising too much already to name it 'sunrise'. However it still gives me some sunrise/sunset feeling:
