monday night sunset

I took a walk out at Fumee tonight and then stopped at the Lake Antoine boat landing for pics of the sunset.  The first pic is from Fumee on my walk Saturday morning.  The next one is from my walk tonight.  The rest are from the boat landing.

Lake Antione Sunset

I took this shot without realizing that my flash was on.   I think this one turned out kinda cool.  I’ll have to try this more often.

 

november 21 sunset

This was the sunset tonight.  I wish I had the chance to take pics from the top of Millie Hill.  It would have been a much better view.

Psalm 71:14

 

But as for me, I will always have hope;

I will praise you more and more.

Urban Sunset

This was the sunset last night, Oct. 12.  These were the only pics I was able to get.  I really wish I could have gone to the top of Millie Hill with my Rebel, but there will be other sunsets.

Veteran’s Day Sunset

These pictures were taken last Friday from the top of MIllie HIll in Iron Mountain, Michigan.

 

a prayer

Let me do my work each day;
And if the darkened hours of despair overcome me,
May I not forget the strength that comforted me
In the desolation of other times.

May I still remember the bright hours that found me
Walking over the silent hills of my childhood,
Or dreaming on the margin of the quiet river,
When a light glowed within me,
And I promised my early God to have courage
Amid the tempests of the changing years.
Spare me from bitterness
And from the sharp passions of unguarded moments.

May I not forget that poverty and riches are of the spirit.
Though the world may know me not,
May my thoughts and actions be such
As shall keep me friendly with myself.
Lift my eyes from the earth,
And let me not forget the uses of the stars.
Forbid that I should judge others,
Lest I condemn myself.

Let me not follow the clamor of the world,
But walk calmly in my path.
Give me a few good friends who will love me for what I am;
And keep ever burning before my vagrant steps
The kindly light of hope.
And though age and infirmity overtake me,
And I come not within sight of the castle of my dreams,
Teach me still to be thankful for life,
And for times olden memories that are good and sweet;
And may the evening’s twilight find me gentle still.

~Max Ehrmann (1872 – 1945)~

A daughter is the happy memories of the past, the joyful moments of the present, and the hope and promise of the future.
