"Time-lapse of the sunset over 1000 consecutive days. Watch as the Sun yo-yos back and forth along the horizon as the seasons change.
This video shows images of the sunset taken from the same point at the Mount Laguna Observatory in San Diego County over a 3 year period. Each individual image was recorded by the west-facing HPWREN camera. "
