Sunset
Hollywood street name
Sunset is the time when the sun disappears below the horizon, marking the transition from day to night.
The word also describes the atmospheric display of colors—oranges, reds, purples—that often accompanies this event.
Figuratively, sunset suggests decline or ending: the sunset of his career, sunset years.
A sunset clause or sunset provision is a legal mechanism that automatically terminates a law or regulation after a specified date unless renewed.
