After dinner we went back to "The Window" where we watched the sun the other night but never saw it set. We tried again tonight along with 20 other people hoping to see the orange ball descend below the horizon. Success! It was fun to be with 20 other people and all of us doing something together. There were small conversations that could be heard among some others. So nice to have people making small connections with each other. It was spectacular to see the sun emerge from the bottom of a cloud and then sink behind the horizon. What a joy!
As we were leaving the overlook, I saw Stan turn around and look up. There were some trees, but they were not very attractive really. Then I looked again, and he was looking above the trees at a very thin crescent moon! It was in and out of the clouds but several of us managed to get a photograph, incuding one young woman who was using her mom's borrowed camera.
While we were waiting for the sun to appear from the clouds, I was looking around and saw Stan with his camera, and then in almost the same pose, saw this gentleman shooting the scene with his cellphone! Almost a perfect match!

First photo is absolutely amazing! Love the contrast of Stan's camera with large lens and a cell phone camera but all enjoying the views. Joan
The top photo is absolutely stunning! The blazing red sun next to the dark mountain and back lit by the light above the clouds. Wow! Betsey
Beautiful skies! Love the beautiful color of the sunset with the mountains. The second photo is wonderful too with the bright sliver of the moon and the full and dark clouds. Awesome photos! Trace
