Coming over the Saddle Road from Kona on our way back to Hilo in January, we turned around to see the sun going down.

I’m named after the sunrise and there’s such a sense of what’s-to-come wonder about the first light…but I’ve seen far more sunsets than sunrises (despite the name, I’m really more of a night person) and I think there’s something so much more powerful about the intense hues of a setting sun.

What about you? Sunrise or sunset?
