Magical Sunset in Market Square

Magical Sunset in Market Square

This was an incredible surprise on the eve of 2014’s first major snowstorm (according to the forecast) – a warm red sky with the bottom of the clouds kissed by the setting sun as the downtown lights began to brighten.

It was a beautiful sunset that I was watching from my office window and spontaneously decided to go and see what the horizon looked like from Market Square.  In this wide angle shot you can see the Portsmouth Athenaeum, the North Church and its iconic steeple, and the glow of sunset down the corridor of Congress Street in the distance.
