6 Years Ago
The summer of 2020 was surreal for many reasons. People were just starting to come out of seclusion as public health experts urged us to get outdoors but stay away from each other. Masks and hand sanitizer were in high demand and hard to find. Grocery store shelves were half-empty. Everyone was learning how to use Zoom.

Just to make life weirder and more post-apocalyptic, there were wildfires all over the west, and we lived through day after day of smoke-filled air. The one bright spot with that poor air quality was the spectacular sunrises and sunsets.

That was the year I introduced the daily Golden Eye Candy feature, and many of that summer's photos featured orange suns. I hope you enjoy reviewing one of my happier memories of 2020. Thanks to all the photographers!
