The title is from Wordsworth of course. The view is of New Smyrna Beach after sunset. Except for the hole in the clouds it was kind of dark but I made an effort to capture the scene anyway. To me, that lone soul on the beach made it look a bit poignant. Poignant is a five dollar word and I accept Visa. As you can tell I was sixty feet in the air when I took this. I had made friends with some pelicans.

For your shot of "White Roofs" you jumped 20 feet in the air. On this shot you were 60 feet in the air. Take it from me, Ed, you shouldn't be getting high quite so often.

As for your posting, I love it. The colors are fabulous and are unlike any colors I've seen in a sunset on the West Coast. I could barely make out the poignant producing soul on the beach. I'm amazed that the knucklehead is walking on the beach without watching the sunset. His loss is our gain. Faves.

To err is human, but forgiveness was never my strong suit.

I don't think that cloud is very lonely pal...

It looks as if it's gonna 'share' all it has with us!...

Good shot!..

how can one use letters, words or prose against its own institution? is it not to say that this accepted alphabet can portray intolerable thoughts against itself; the reflection of these words represent the meaning of ones mindless inquiry, generalizing became this text. . .read the marks behind a letter of assurance/ freedom is jailed within. . ." _ EaB

I can see how it might be possible for a man to look down upon earth and be an atheist, but I cannot conceive how he could look up into the heavens and say there is no God. - Abraham Lincoln
