    I dare not guess, let's just say it matters not to ne which is is as both are equally beautiful......so, my perception doesn't change
    my view of the object.

    Clever answer, however where I live and took the photo it is definitely one and not the other. :-)

    My perception is that we are facing west and the sun is about to retire. I see a light in the window of the home leading me to believe that darkness is anticipated whereas if it is dawn approaching the light would probably have been left off to enjoy the brightness of a new day.

    Tim, I'm going to wait with the answer, after others have a chance to share their perception with us. Thanks.

    Probably sunrise, although I am never up early enough to see the sun rising. We get more red and mauve in the evening The firy stuff seems to arrive in the morning.

    Love your clever question though I don't dare to give an answer. I am familiar with sunsets but not with sunrises...

    A grand question. Knowing which way is north would help with the answer.

    I'm not sure if I'd call it perception, or just an emotion, but to me it has the feeling of a sunrise.

    My post also poses a question :-))

    For Tim:
    I don't think those are lights on in the windows I think it is the reflection of the sky?
