...but Re will Re sur Re ct

everytime I witness a bloody sunset I can´t help remembering the legends of ancient egyptian mythology, where the sunset was sometimes the death of Re (or Ra), others the killing of Osiris by his brother Set, other times the moment in which Set dismembered Osiris and diseminated his pieces along the Nile (making it grow very red too for the blood spilled) etc etc...

Today was no exception.
