These days, those colors are more likely to be captured by cameras than paintbrushes or stone monuments, and at the most iconic sunrise and sunset locations in the wild places of the world, photographers jockey with one another like newscasters for the best angle of the sun at the intersection of two worlds. Hues of gold and umber, of vermillion and ochre and auburn drape the landscape in otherworldly color that may last just seconds—and perhaps become the photographic capture of a lifetime. This vibrant display is a product of scattering light that bends and refracts from oxygen and nitrogen in the atmosphere. But for all we know, there are few experiences that compare to the momentary lapse between night and day.
