setting Sun is highly distorted near the horizon because of atmospheric refraction‚ making the sunset appear to occur when the Sun’s disk is already about one diameter below the horizon. Sunset is distinct from dusk‚ which is the time at which the sky becomes completely dark‚ which occurs when the Sun is approximately eighteen degrees below the horizon. The period between sunset and dusk is called twilight. Locations north of the Arctic Circle and south of the Antarctic Circle experience no sunset

and was in a state of consternation. I was about to die‚ and I knew it. The scene was exactly how you could imagine it in the movies- the plane swaying side to side without proper control‚ a transient rain of burning‚ hot‚ red meteors flying from the sky which was as black as coal and the helpless pilot‚ trying to find her way out. I was definitely going to hurl out my lunch and my palms were drenched in sweat. At that instant moment‚ the thought of everyone and everything I loved flashed right in front

is not perhaps polished or dignified; but for the matter of that‚ few people are dignified when coming out of a bath. But the scheme of rain in itself is one of an enormous purification. It realises the dream of some insane hygienist: it scrubs the sky. Its giant brooms and mops seem to reach the starry rafters and Starless corners of the cosmos; it is a cosmic spring cleaning. If the Englishman is really fond of cold baths‚ he ought not to grumble at the English climate for being a cold bath. In

One place that I will never forget is the ranch my uncle (my grandmother’s brother‚ in Mexican culture we refer to them as uncles) built and owns. It lays on a thousand acres of land‚ just outside Toluca‚ the capital of the state of Mexico. Rancho Feshi‚ which means “singing waterfall”‚ is a trout farm. There are many different deep-water‚ man-made rectangular ponds where thousands of trout are bred for later dining. The ranch is famous for its trout and many people come from all over Mexico either

Someone above must have known it was my graduation day and blessed me with a beautiful day. I was so excited that the night before the graduation I could not sleep at all. I tossed and turned all night‚ thinking about the graduation. I waited this moment for four long years in high school. Graduation is one of the memorable days of my life. On my graduation‚ I was

friend Rahim‚ who works as a forest ranger‚ took me along on one of his trips into the jungle. I had wanted to experience for myself first-hand what he had always spoken about.The moment we entered the jungle‚ a sort of semi-darkness enveloped us. The sky was almost completely shut out by the canopy of leaves high above us. At ground level‚ thick vegetation grew in every direction. The air was damp and had a peculiar smell to it.All around us were the sounds of insects‚ birds and animals. Though we could

Reflection on “a thousand splendid suns” “One could not count the moons that shimmer on her roofs. And the thousand splendid suns that hide behind her walls." Closing the book‚ I just feel real and hopeful. I will not say this story is a tragedy‚ and I hate when people generalise it as a book where everyone died except for Laila‚ Tariq and their children. Indeed‚ a depressing and melancholy mood is seemed to be perpetuated throughout the book‚ which has a large time frame spanning over

The swollen clouds hover above the tree as if they were just drifting along with the flow of the breeze. The periwinkle background creates a canvas for them to lull across. The sky continues to the far back of the picture‚ where they come in contact with another set of trees. These trees are inferior

that still remained from the day before. At the shore there are colorful seashells in the sand when the sun hits down on them. In the distance is the ocean‚ which is as blue as blue as the sky (Scripps Networks‚ LLC. 2012). Another thing that I can see is the seagulls free like the wind soaring through the sky. I can also hear the seagulls loudly shriek as they soar gracefully above. I imagine that I am sitting on my perfect beach in evening‚ smelling the salt air‚ and feeling the cool breeze
