...And While We're On Sunsets
Discussion
Hmmm, do you reckon there is a significant difference in the light conditions between sunrise and sunset?
When I was in France we always used to get the most incredible orangey-pink surnises over the mountains, but sunsets were fairly standard! Captured a few on my prehistoric compact... I'll try and dig them out.

I'd say it depends which coast you're on...conditions over water are always different to conditions over land...When I was in France we always used to get the most incredible orangey-pink surnises over the mountains, but sunsets were fairly standard!

The only water for miles was frozen 
I suppose the air temperature (and as such the humidity) play a large part in the frequencies of light that get through. Also the altitude (2000+ metres) probably has an effect and I suppose having all the snow around to mirror the available light.
I do really like low-light shots of all descriptions. As well as sunsets I think there's something very cool about light sources in the dark, like this photo:
Coming home from university, I used to get the train past Port Talbot steel works at night and that looked incredible with various lights shining out and a stretch of water for them to reflect on. Always wished I had a camera to hand.
