Horizon | Dusk or Dawn

Feb 2, 2010

We made a quick trip to Vegas this weekend. I pulled over about twenty miles outside of the city when I saw this amazing setting. When you think Nevada this is not the picture that come to mind, and what struck me as I stood outside the car, traffic screaming by at a million miles and hour, was that if I had been dropped into this place without context, it would be impossible for me to tell if it was dusk or dawn.

So much of the time, this is how life feels isn’t it? Change is always coming, but sometimes (most times?) it’s hard to decipher if you are standing before the dawn of something new, or looking into the twilight of something fading.

I would say dusk because you mentioned traffic screaming by you. I’m hedging my bets that it’s not morning traffic. :) Lovely pictures nonetheless.

these images are beautiful!!!
I’d guess dusk just because I can’t picture anyone driving at dawn during a “quick weekend trip” and also cause you mentioned traffic. If I’m wrong, it would amaze me to know some people actually do get up early enough to drive at dawn, lol.
