Now I Lay me Down to Sleep by Weezilou

Now I Lay me Down to Sleep

When I saw that golden sunlight reflected off the front of my neighbour's west-facing house, I asked Ken to drop everything and go with me to the graveyard! It's the nearest open view to the setting sun, and the light and colours didn't disappoint. In the moment, I wouldn't have expected that this would speak to me as I uploaded my photos, but perhaps it's my homage to those who now lay here and with approaching fall, I'm likely to visit more often.

Too, it brings to mind the irony of those who perished in a field of sunflowers, as it remained in my thoughts after mention by @golftragic and @Cherrill

What impact we have on one another, hands across the world!
Beautiful shadows ☺

haha! 'Ken! take me to the graveyard!' How can a man resist?! I hope we (@golftragic) didn't bring down the mood over your sunflowers. I guess its the power of global reporting that we see these images. This is a beautiful image and a peaceful place for permanent rest.
