Dusk

Your kind words and personal sharing of stories over yesterday's shot and news meant a lot to me. Thank you for caring! Today the sad news was confirmed and tomorrow I take my children to their first ever memorial service. It's all so surreal and sad. The sun shone again today and I went for an hour bike ride along the seawalk. It was nice to feel the warmth of the sun and take in our beautiful coastline. I walked to the beach at dusk as the colours were beautiful in the sky and water. It was quite cold so I didn't sit in this old chair but I liked the look. If only our fire pit wasn't filled with fresh logs, a raging fire might have been in order.
It seems symbolic of the recent events. Very neat POV.

November 11th, 2014  
this is a beautiful pov, almost the chair's lonely perspective.
November 11th, 2014  
It does look inviting! Nice shot, great POV.
November 11th, 2014  
Your last two shots have been so filled with feeling. How tragic to have to help with your children's grief - as hard as it is on adults, I imagine it is that much harder on our younger children. I know it was here when a boy I was close to committed suicide. It really tore the kids - he was 14. My thoughts and prayers are for all of you who were part of his life.
November 11th, 2014  
I know you will the pillar of strength for your children tomorrow. Very hard day ahead.
November 11th, 2014  
Such a beautiful shot. It has always amazed me how in light of such a tragic loss life continues. We will certainly be praying for everyone tomorrow
