23rd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Artistic
Contradictions

This is one of those sunsets near the full moon, featuring two-tone clouds. I like their two-tone nature because it suggests that there is no absolute existence. If one side of it is experiencing the fleeing sun, the other side is waiting for the calm of the night and the arrival of the moon.
