Last night, a couple friends and I decided to hike to a look-out point in Irvine looking over Newport, Irvine, and the surrounding areas. As the sun started setting, I was expecting a warm glow, but instead it gave off more of a cool feel and seemed to just barely graze the tops of the city. It also was really chilly out, and the clouds were stormy so although a sunset could normally be thought of as serene and peaceful, this one could also be seen as foreboding or gloomy. The sunlight coming from the left also seems to be pushing through the grey clouds- a type of lighting that could symbolize wanting something more or even the end of someone's life. If one were to see this as more of a peaceful scene, It could be used as (obviously) the end of a long day.
