Goodnight Raleigh - a look at the art, architecture, history, and people of the city at night

An Urban Sunset

City folk rarely see the sun tuck behind mountains, trees, or water.  Instead, it slumbers behind concrete and steel.  Thankfully, the sun doesn’t mind.

Ian – this is absolutely beautiful. Can’t say that I’d ever think a concrete wall would set the stage for a beautiful sunset shot. Nicely done!
