On one hand, I think the best way to experience this very sunset* is to watch the video I made: Colorado Sunset Time-Lapse – In A Colorado Minute (Week 341). But just looking at a few of the photos I took that night works even better for realizing how much the scene changes during a Colorado sunset – before and after the sun disappears first behind the mountains, then behind the true horizon.

Before the sun sets.

As the sun sets behind the mountains.

After the sun sets behind the Rocky Mountains.

The most magic time during a river reflection sunset.

As the sun sets behind the true horizon.

After the sun sets behind the true horizon.
