Conversely, the allure of sunsets lies in their poignant farewell to the day, casting a warm glow upon the earth as it transitions into night.
“Witnessing the sun go below the horizon, painting the sky with vibrant colors, is like witnessing a masterpiece unfold before your eyes,” said senior Maria Castro.
