Pretty cool if you ask me!

Not to get too far out there, but I think it’s not just us it’s a cosmic dance…there are moments in this ever changing universe when things intersect, such as these wonderful clouds on that horizon with just right lighting. It we are aware, really present as Paul described, we can recognize and capture a moment in a photo before it is gone. Then the universe moves or we moves….

If we’re keenly aware we can sometimes predict these intersections and be ready “the moments.”

Joel says it better…and shorter. :-)

It is that moment when the labels drop away and you get to really ‘see’, such as you did, Monte! Great photo to go with the quote!
