Sunset Photography ....

Some amazing, truly breathtaking sunsets here, in the Pacific Northwest, these past few days.  Heaven's sweetest kiss upon the Earth before she sleeps ... Well, even if "words" elude me these days, the images are still coming.  When those begin to fade, I suppose that I shall heed the wisdom of the talented Ansel Adams:

“When words become unclear, I shall focus with photographs. When images become inadequate, I shall be content with silence.” ~Ansel Adams

A friend of mine says that God's wisdom flows more clearly in the silence ... Such a beautiful notion.

Peace & Love,

12/6/2011 ... I am praying especially for the people of Syria right now.  Praying is a good way to fill the silence.  May God Bless them and bring an end to the brutality of the current ruling regime in Syria.  And may the rest of the world find the courage to speak up and voice their condemnation of this regime for needlessly slaughtering so many of its civilian population.

Grandma Jeanne's Sunset with Shooting Star ...

Grandma Jeanne this is your sunset ... 6/12/2010 ... Bethany and I were watching it for you and we even (thanks to Bethany's great eyes) saw a shooting star zip across the horizon. Bethany made a wish for you ...
 
 
 

(Look for the shooting star to the top left of the big tree ...)

I think that just maybe ... that shooting star was you going back home ... Safe journey:  you are loved and you will be greatly missed!  Until we meet again ...


All Our Love,

Michelle & Bethany



P.S.  I've just been in a terrible overwhelming funk ... since my Grandmother's passing.  For some reason ... I just can't seem to shake it.  Vacation coming soon ... maybe that will help?  Until then, I just don't have it in me to write right now ... Until I find the words in me once me ... Peace and Love ... ~M/Isa
