    I love that graduated blue sky. Something so peaceful about it.

    Your shot reminds me of the artwork from this album:

  6. leeroy, it was quiet and peaceful. Just me, the breeze and the night sky.

    rob, you've got some impressive images at neverhappen. I especially like the moonrise over the city. kep it up!

    jem, yes, i did get your invitation, thank you! I signed up at weekly shot, but so far, haven't joined in the competition there.

    kathryn, glad you came by, and thanks for noticing that I try to depict a sense of wonder in my shots!

    Marion, for some reason, the sky in Arizona seems bluer than where I live in the midwestern U.S. The early evenings there are incredible.
