Gentle Horizon

We know our horizon is always there - like good friends and the stars, even when it is not seen. We are busy playing on the beach, paddling in the shallows, or sailing the seas,and we don't see or think about it. Sometimes we look in its direction and are blinded by sunshine - or tears. This picture is posted with thoughts of our fellow Caedes member Mark (sasraku) and his family, who are going through a sad time as Mark's father has sailed his seas and is nearing his horizon. May it be as gentle as this one.

A beautiful thought represented by a beautiful picture. Your sky looks like it's part of an Impressionist painting. gentle is the word.

A gentle and sensitive tribute. The exquisite colours of the clouds add the final touch to the scene and make for an evocative and memorable image.
