sunset photos

Dusk sky captures

Sunset photos are photographs of the sun descending toward or below the horizon, typically featuring dramatic orange, pink, and purple skies.

The phrase has become shorthand for a clichéd or basic aesthetic choice, especially on social media: Her Instagram is nothing but sunset photos and coffee cups.

Despite—or because of—their ubiquity, sunsets remain among the most commonly photographed subjects.
