It is interesting, how sunrise and sunset look much different, despite the fact that, in both cases, Sun is at the same place at the horizon. We could say that sunsets are sad and sunrises are cheering, but is that because we know when it is sunset and sunrise or there is indeed some kind of difference between these two natural phenomena? I guess the morning fog, the specific smell of cold air are the main reasons why sunrises do look more refreshing than sunsets.

It is really awesome experience to watch a sunrise in the morning and to smell freshness in air, even if you are living in a big polluted city, you have to feel a beauty of sunrise. You have to feel that smell of a new beginning, of the rising of a new hope and new opportunities.

We have collected here a nice collection of photos of beautiful sunrises and this should be a good way to start hard working day in your office, but we know that watching sunrise on a desktop screen can never be compared with watching it live.
