Here's a sketch I happened to do, which fits this week's IF topic of "fleeting" - the sky becomes gorgeous pastel shades of oranges, pinks, and blues when the sun is setting in southern California, and it lasts only for about 10-15 minutes. I like the challenge of doing a quick watercolor study of sunsets - it helps me remember the beauty of the moment, which is fleeting indeed.

I too find the mix of colors and textures in the stages of the sunset a fleeting experience. For example, I like to photograph the sky at this time and capture each change before the darkness falls. Another way you caught the fleetingness was by realizing that each sunset in each location is unique. That particular one will never again occur.
