When the Old West was being settled there were battles between Native Americans and settlers or pioneers as they were sometimes called. To go into battle, the Native American wouldn't have taken one arrow or the pioneers wouldn't have armed themselves with one bullet. Therefore when I found this gorgeous sunset, I didn't take just one photo. I took as many as I could because just as soon as I snapped one, the landscape had changed. Darkness had gained a second or two on me. I wanted to explain a couple of things about this sunset. The lake borders the golf course and when you look at the reflection in the lake, it appears the lake ends long before it actually does. The reflection is coming from the horizon which is quite a distance from where it appears and makes a false shoreline. The white behind the reflection is actually more of the lake. I found this to be quite fascinating. Also this photo named itself and you can see why if you look real close. Being aware of some of the Native American's beliefs, I find this to be somewhat spiritual.
