I took these pictures two week ago at Thornden Park in Syracuse. High zoom with a cheap digital camera. I like the relative close-up, the dark radiance. And while it’s probably far fetched, I think they kind of fit in neatly with the posts below about bodies, technologies, and politics. I’m just not sure how. According to the rabbinic-midrashic commentary Genesis Rabbah, Adam was terrified when he saw his first sunset. By now, we know the world’s not going to end, anytime too soon. But why muck up a perfectly good sunset with a bit of exegesis? Sometimes a sunset is just a sunset, and you like how they turn out.
