Zoom The sunset over DC tonight. The following is the description I gave it on flickr: 

It’s wild to think that this sunset, that sprawled throughout the skies over Washington, DC this evening only lasted for a number of seconds. As the sun swiftly set, it occurred to me that this combination of color and cloud design would never again impress the world in this exact formation ever again. Photography has been known to catch a bad reputation for being nothing more than an avenue of documenting moments at the push of a button and lacking artistic value. Add this to the portfolio of counter arguments. Although this photograph documents a moment in time; it is unique, it is rare, and it is a “Nikonic” immortalization of a natural work of art that the rest of the world might share in the pleasure of observing just as Washingtonians did tonight.
