Yet Another Mawkish Sunset Photo

Photographer’s Note

Okay, I know the TE is full of these sunsets, and I claim no great contribution.

Except that this lovely sunset is seen over an urban dam in a high crime neighborhood in Baltimore City (over 280 homicides in the city in 2007!) and you would think I am silly to be hanging out there enjoying a sunset, looking for trouble. I hang out there a lot actually. This is Druid Hill Park, the lake is created by an old earthen dam. The ducks are my friends. But they don't like the dog.
