Taken in February in rural Ottawa, this winter sunset settles gently over frozen fields, where tall reeds stand in silhouette against a sky set ablaze with amber and indigo. The cold air sharpens the horizon, allowing the colours to stretch and linger long after the sun has dipped below the tree line. In winter, sunsets often appear more vivid because the colder, cleaner air holds less humidity and fewer particles, scattering light in a way that deepens reds and oranges. Insta: @danidmedia
