Ah. Now here’s a totally off-topic site I love deeply. If there’s one moment of the day that I totally adore, it’s the sunset. Today when the sun was setting, I went for an 8 mile run through the valley of the river that flows behind my house. There’s really no better way to empty your head, clear your mind and prepare for the next day than taking the time to enjoy the sun going under. I’m not going for a run every day. Mostly every three days, because the first day after the run my legs hurt like crazy and the second day after the run I’m happy the pain is gone. But I guess I’m addicted to endorphin (and running). And there’s nothing that satisfies me more than being on a natural high while running towards a setting sun. But, during the day when I’m at work, I can’t go for a run and the sun isn’t setting. So that’s why there’s this website called ‘Eternal Sunset‘.
Eternal Sunset endeavours to ensure you can enjoy the sunset live from any location, at any time. As the sunset moves westward, Eternal Sunset continuously tunes into different webcams, chasing the sunset around the globe. This service is currently provided through the use of 199 west-facing webcams across 41 countries.
Eternal Sunset is a virtual space where time is passing but where the daily cycle of day and night has come to a freeze at sunset; a space where the sun is always going down but never goes under.
Great isn’t it? No matter what time it is at your place, there’s always a sunset somewhere else. Thank you, inventor of the webcam and streaming video, whoever and wherever you are. :)
