A Labor Of Love

It is a real labor of love to snap sky pictures on Labor Day weekend! This time the real show was not the sunset itself; it was the opposite side of the sky. While the sun was doing this:

'Tis evening, and the round red sun sinks slowly in the west,
The flowers fold their petals up, the birds fly to their nest,
The crickets chirrup in the grass, the bats flit to and fro...

I am not so sure I agree with you...I think both sides are pretty outstanding! But do agree that shooting sky shots is never a chore.

That is a good visual to think about the different ways of seeing things - we might think we see it one way and it really is another way. sandie
