An elevated view captures a sunset or sunrise over the city of Podgorica, Montenegro, with a mountainous backdrop. The upper two-thirds of the frame are dominated by a sky displaying vibrant hues of orange and red, transitioning to a lighter yellow-orange closer to the horizon line, and fading to a purplish-grey at the very top. Horizontal cloud streaks are visible across the colored sky. A dark, silhouetted mountain range forms a jagged horizon line beneath the colorful sky. Below the mountains, the city's residential areas are visible, shrouded in deep shadows. The buildings are primarily two to three stories high, featuring sloped, reddish-brown tiled roofs. In the mid-ground, a prominent two-story building with a hip roof and light-colored facade (appearing dark due to lighting) is visible to the right of center. A utility pole stands directly in front of this building. To its left, another building shows rectangular windows. Scattered throughout the urban landscape, faint artificial lights are visible as small, bright points. A tall, slender structure, possibly a chimney or communication tower, rises in the distant urban area, silhouetted against the lower part of the sky. No individuals or active vehicles are discernible. The immediate foreground is dark and indistinct, showing some vegetation and possibly construction materials near the prominent building. The overall scene is characterized by deep shadows across the urban and natural landscape, contrasting sharply with the illuminated sky.
