Running low on Sykes I explored another box of his slides, one I’d not searched before. Inside were a few slides grouped by subjects and captioned – minimally. For these subjects we have already seen slides “without words” in Our Daily Sykes. There was a grouping for “Snake River,” another with many close-ups of flowers and a third of sunsets, of which the above was one. It is that rare photograph of a sunset that breaks the commonplace of the sinking sun sensations with a very satisfying composition and what editors and ad-agents like to call “human interest” too. But where is it? Again, Horace does not tell us. However, after “reading” the horizon I remembered it from a Washington State real photo postcard we used in our book “Washington Then and Now.” With the help of Google Earth I think I figured out within a few feet from where Horace took this sunset sometime in the 1940s. However, I’m not telling. Rather I’ll include a good clue below – another display of the same horizon and in full daylight. So where is it? (Click TWICE to Enlarge)
