Just A Little While Longer

NOTICE: THIS IMAGE IS NOT TO BE POSTED ON ANY OTHER WEBSITE. Taken with Canon G9, JPEG set on Superfine. We had the most fantastic sunset last night (June 16, 2010). I shot until my little Canon got really warm. Each time the sunset changed it seemed like it was more beautiful than the former change. It had just stormed and as a matter of fact was still raining lightly when I snapped this picture. I should mention, those are crawfish pots sitting in the water. Regarding the title: This was such a beautiful sunset, I sat in the car bawling. I had to wipe my eyes more than once in order to be able to take the next picture. I told the Lord as long as He was going to drop beauty like this on his human children,then please, don't take me to heaven just yet. Leave me on this owd earth just a little while longer.

----I told the Lord as long as He was going to drop beauty like this on his human children,then please, don't take me to heaven just yet----

I hope the Lord has heard your prayer Momma. Will mean that we can enjoy longer the by Him created beauty, registered by your camera.
Great post Pat.

Your sentimental side is showing Owd Momma and I think that is great. I like your crotchety side as well. :)
You will know it is time to quit when you grab your shotgun instead of your Canon and start blasting away at the sunset.

Beautiful, both visually and emotionally.
