Focus On Life Week 17 ~ Evening Moments

The month of May ends with evening moments.  Sally says, there is a moment when the day begins to quietly slip away from the earth and the calm of evening floods over the land.  Colors deepen, stars peek through pin holes in a twilight sky.  We begin to exhale and slowly let the world of the day slide from our shoulders.

It's been mostly cloudy all week.  I was doing dishes after dinner one evening and when I looked up the sun was shining as it was going down.  There was just something about the color and the shadows and the way the pink blossoms on the cherry tree sparkled.  I knew I wanted to capture it for this week's prompt but it was one of those moments I would have grabbed the camera anyway.


I hope you have a fabulous weekend!
