When the sun sets, it offers stunning views (Eng/Esp)

English version

When the sun begins to dip below the horizon, the landscape takes on a whole new meaning because the colors in the sky change completely, as natural light is replaced by streetlights. I can’t help but admire these sights, as they become scenes that inspire the spirit. That’s what life itself is like—a sunset that invites reflection on what was done before nightfall.

Walking along Fernández de Serpa Avenue after five in the afternoon is a fascinating activity; it not only serves as physical exercise but also as an incentive to immerse myself in new sensations, different from the stimuli I experience at home. This avenue ends in front of the statue of the Monk and the Indian, which is spectacularly framed by the reddish sky.

The street looked particularly clean, and a strange sense of solitude accompanied me. I won’t deny that I enjoy this complicit silence; I let myself drift away and can only feel the breeze on my face. Being in touch with nature is incredibly relaxing—far from the clamor of motorcycles, loud music, and everything else that disturbs the peace.

The sky seemed like a perfect canvas, where the clouds formed vague shapes that begged to be deciphered. Shadows began to dance around me, and I watched the transition from afternoon to night as I gazed at the mysterious sky. The hills on the other side of the Sucre coast vanished into the night, and the darkening sea whispered a pleasant song with its waves.

I paused in front of the statue of the Indian and the Monk, an iconic symbol of the city that reminds us of the past—those origins that have left an indelible mark on our identity as a people. Although photography has come a long way and can capture a wide range of colors, witnessing a sunset in person offers a sensation that technology has not yet been able to replicate.

Cuando el sol comienza a esconderse por el horizonte, el paisaje toma otra connotación porque los colores en el cielo cambian por completo, en tanto la luz natural es reemplazada por los bombillos. No puedo dejar de admirar estos elementos, pues se convierten en escenas inspiradoras para el espíritu. Así es la vida misma, un ocaso para reflexionar sobre lo que se hizo antes del anochecer.

Caminar por la Avenida Fernández de Serpa después de las cinco de la tarde es una actividad fascinante, no solo me sirve como ejercicio físico sino también como aliciente para llenarme de otras sensaciones, distintas a los estímulos que tengo en casa. Esta avenida desemboca frente a la estatua del Monje y del Indio, la cual queda enmarcada por el cielo rojizo de forma espectacular.

La calle lucía particularmente limpia y una extraña soledad me acompañaba, no voy a negar que disfruto de este silencio cómplice, me dejo llevar y solo logro sentir la brisa en mi rostro. Estar en contacto con la naturaleza es sumamente relajante, lejos el bullicio de las motos, la música a alto volumen y todo aquello que perturbe la tranquilidad.

El cielo parecía ser un lienzo perfecto, donde las nubes dibujaban formas confusas y que pedían ser descifradas. Las sombras comenzaban a danzar a mi alredededor, pude contemplar el instante de la transición de la tarde a la noche fijando la mirada en el misterioso firmamento. Las colinas de la otra costa sucrense desaparecieron en la noche y el mar oscurecido susurraba con su oleaje una agradable canción.

Me detuve frente a la estatua del Indio y el Monje, un símbolo emblemático en la ciudad que nos recuerda el pasado, esos orígenes que marcan una huella imborrable en nuestro gentilicio. Si bien la fotografía ha avanzado mucho y puede captar una alta gama de colores, presenciar un atardecer en vivo concede una sensación que todavía la tecnología no ha podido imitar.
