The Weekly Photo Challenge theme this week is “Silhouette”. Some of you have seen this already. Forgive me for reposting as I now realize WordPress wants a current post rather than a revision of a previous.
This photo is of a sunset I took in February. Winter is my least favorite season but sunsets like these provide rich arrays of color to remind me that all seasons possess their own beauty. The bare branches allowed a view of the sunset not possible in warm seasons. The crisp air and humidity with slight cloud cover allowed a mixture of hues that danced their way into evening sleep. The graceful curves of the tree branches wove a beautiful pattern as if adorning the sky in a great big hug.
These reminders make the barren season bearable when I am impatient for spring. This one is worth clicking on for a larger view.
Enjoy … again.
Peace,
Alexandria
