Travel photography, Sunset in Chiba, Looking across Tokyo bay.

We stopped on the Tokyo Bay coast of Chiba as the sun set after visiting the nearby Buddhist mountain of Nokogiriyama.
Everybody always loves a sunset and the colours and clouds were exceptionally beautiful in a subtle way. I love to photograph clouds and would have hundreds of thousands of photos of these fluffy floating accumulations of water vapour. But I always take more.
At sunrise and sunset the way the different colours of light play on the clouds clearly illustrates how we live on a tiny planet in a in a gigantic universe governed by the sun and it’s ability to hold us in orbit whilst hurtling through space as we spin at a tremendous speed. The fact that earth has a system that can sustain life is incredibly beautiful and there is no time better to observe and savour this as at sunrise and sunset.
