Sunset Photos

These sunset photos have been taken from around the world. Desert sands often create striking sunsets, so I've taken some at Death Valley National Park in California. There are also images from Joshua Tree National Park in California and Saguaro National Park in Arizona. There's also one taken near the great pyramids of Giza near Cairo, Egypt.
