At Dusk

Posted by
Denny Jump (Bellevue, WA, United States) on 16 January 2019 in Landscape & Rural.

As the sunset turned to dusk, the colors exploded but we are losing the light quickly....
at THAT moment, the colors of dusk take over the scene and, wow, was it amazing ;-)

Thank you ;-)

We advance from a creative passion "- (Edgar Morin)

- "To photograph is to hold one's breath, when all faculties converge to capture fleeting reality. It's at
that precise moment that mastering an image becomes a great physical and intellectual joy."

- My beliefs, and values, have always been strongly tied-to music, especially Jazz, and Blues.
- The following artists and lyrics seem to "sum-up" where my spirit resides:
EARTH WIND AND FIRE;
"HOLD ON TO YOUR SPIRIT,
ALWAYS FEEL YOUR SOUL....
HONOR THE MAGIC IN YOUR HEART"; Earth Wind and Fire
