The Longest Day ... A Perfect Ending

 The golden hue of the sun cast across the distant horizon and slowly dimmed
as waters softly lapped upon the shore and gulls made a final pass,

bringing a beautiful end to the year's longest day.

The Magic of a Sunset

 The evening slowly passes as one walks along the shore.  There's a quiet ambiance 

broken only by the call of a gull and water lapping on the sands.  The setting sun 

casts its' brilliance as far as the eye can see and one's mind wanders past 

the day's matters to the pleasures of yesterday and the dreams of tomorrow.

For a few brief moments our thoughts are colored by the magical aura of the setting sun.

It's almost impossible to watch a sunset and not dream.."

A Saharan Dust Sunset

 

For a fleeting moment along Florida's gulf shore, the dull, overcast evening

            sky affected by Saharan Dust was beautifully painted by the setting sun.

Some moments are truly golden!

 

Day's end

          "Never go too long without watching a sunset."

Day comes to a beautiful end on Florida's Gulf Coast.
