"A representation is something we see and recognize from environment and experience" (Dondis 67). I think a sunset is representational because it is something that can be identified by anyone and is seen from all over different parts of the world. Sunsets are defined in elemental visual terms, and we get the direct experience of seeing one most daily. Whether you are on the west coast or the east, you will see the same sun set day in and day out. We know the sun moves downward, changes the sky colors, and moves quickly all from past visual experiences. A sunset is a reality and actuality that the sun exists and we see it with our own eyes.
