Set 02 of My Sunrise and Sunset Favorites from the White Mountains of New Hampshire
Bob Jensen at Trinity University 

I think it was a very elderly poet named Carl Sandburg who said if he had it to do all over
again he would eat more ice cream and watch more sunsets.

Most of the pictures below were taken from my desk or our cottage yard
I'm strictly an amateur photographer
If a bright light appears in a picture it's usually the reflection of my flash on the window glass
Sometimes the lens is zoomed making objects appear closer

On May 14, 2006 I retired from Trinity University after a long and wonderful career as an accounting professor in four universities. I was generously granted "Emeritus" status by the Trustees of Trinity University. My wife and I now live in a cottage in the White Mountains of New Hampshire ---

Our address is 190 Sunset Hill Road, Sugar Hill, New Hampshire
Our cottage was known as the Brayton Cottage in the early 1900s
Sunset Hill is a ridge overlooking with New Hampshire's White Mountains to the East
and Vermont's Green Mountains to the West

My desk faces eastward toward the White Mountains

I watch nearly every sunrise while working on my computer
The flash reflection in the window points to the north side of Franconia Notch

The Three Graces south of Cannon Mountain are also called the "Cannon Balls"

Several of the 60 Cannon Mountain ski trails is visible in the sunrise photograph below

Sunrises are less spectacular without clouds
The pointed peak is Mt. Garfield

Can you make out the "Baby's Cradle" between Mt. LaFayette and Mt. Garfield

Sunsets in the early winter are nearly (but not quite)  straight south around 4:00 pm

Sometimes sunsets behind our birch grove look like wild fires

Often the mountains to the east are the most spectacular at sunset

This is a unique cloud east of my desk at sunset

This is our view of Mt. Washington at sunset
