Mornings and evenings display colors never imagined, even in pictures or paintings. Their color changes, as the sun moves, minute by minute.

Grizzly Encounter
My ex and I were out for an afternoon hike up Stony Creek, a place we had never been before in all our exploring of the spectacular trails around our home.

Why the harvest time equinox doesn't fall around the same time each year
Equinoxes are not day-long events, even though many choose to celebrate all day. Instead, they occur at the moment the Sun crosses the celestial equator – the imaginary line in the sky above Earth's Equator. At this instant, Earth's rotational axis is neither tilted away from nor towards the Sun.
