Sunsets are one of the little things everyone enjoys. A fleeting moment of beauty and calm, bathed in the prettiest colors. But capturing them is an art in and of itself. Photographers can’t just point a camera at a pretty sky. A great sunset shot is all about timing, weather, and patience, waiting for the clouds to light up, balancing the blazing highlights near the horizon with the darker foreground, and catching that short window when the colors peak and then disappear.
The images in this list come from Best Sunset Pics, a curated page in the wider BestPics Community network, of which we recently featured the best night shots. Rather than showcasing one person’s portfolio, here we have standout photos from many photographers around the world. So what you’re seeing here is a rolling “best of” gallery of golden-hour and afterglow moments, sourced from different creators, styles, and corners of the planet.
Let us know which are your favorites and if you have a fond memory of a particularly special sunset.
