Artist's Description
February 2014, and the sun sets directly behind Reno Nevada, as viewed from east Sparks. It is a rare thing for the backlighting to occur on a windy and dusty day, filtering through a haze and onto downtown Reno.
The self-proclaimed "biggest little city in the world," Reno is on I-80 ten miles from the California border and rests at the foot of the snowcapped Sierra Nevada, with the Truckee River winding through its center. To the northeast lies the Black Rock Desert, the home of the famous "Burning Man" festival over the Labor Day weekend. Reno is also the Home of "Hot August Nights," a week-long event featuring classic cars.
This photo has been very popular on National Geographic My Photos page, and I regret that it has taken me so long to post it here.
About Janis Knight
Janis Knight has called Northern Nevada home for 50 years. During childhood, every summer was filled with trips to the Eastern Sierra Nevada Mountains where she fell in love with the beauty, wildness and open spaces of the Great Basin. While art came naturally, it was her first Nikon SLR in 1982 that really ignited the passion for photography. A background in drawing and painting helped her develop her style using elements of composition and light. She began displaying photos in the Tri-county fair in Northern Nevada, often winning best of show and superior ribbons, and her photos hung in businesses around town. Finally, in 2001, she was able to attend University of Nevada, Reno, where she studied black and white film photography...
