If there's such a thing as a perfectly composed photograph, this must be one of them!

BLESSED BE THE SKY

Cloudy, clear,
Bright or drear—
Blessed be the sky!

Sun and star,
Near or far—
Blessed be the sky!

Rain or snow,
Sunset glow—
Blessed be the sky!

Wind or calm,
Healing balm—
Blessed be the sky!

Thanks for sharing this beautiful moment with us. Was a real struggle for me this week, but finally pulled a decent image and words that mattered but most importantly a new job to pay for new adventures, happy weekend to you.

That is really a lovely sunset Mickie... I like how the composition is disturbed by the high vegetation on one side.

Peachy colors, and I love it! The composition is perfect. It must have been a wonderful feeling watching the sun slowly coming down.
