Manhattanhenge 2012

Source
I'm a huge fan of sunsets...and here in Florida, we have some pretty amazing ones. However, this one looks spectacular.

The so-called Manhattanhenge occurs twice a year when the setting sun aligns with the East-West streets of Manhattan's street grid.

Here you have the Manhattanhenge 2012 dates:

Half-sun on the grid:
May 29 @ 8:17pm
July 12 @ 8:25 pm (You might be on time if you are in NYC!)


Full-sun on the grid:
May 30 @ 8:16pm
July 11 @ 8:24 pm

Do you love sunsets? What do you prefer: sunsets or sunrises?

    I LOVE sunrises because they're full of so much hope. Dusk is actually my least favorite time of day because it makes me feel dejected, I've never understood why! Who doesn't love a beautiful sunset, though?!

    Thanks for your comment, I hope you keep reading! I'm loving flipping back through your posts.
