God cradling the sun...

Posted by Judy (Brooksville, Florida, United States) on 14 December 2007 in Plant & Nature and Portfolio.

This is a tribute to my mother, who died 29 years ago today. "So much has taken place in my life, Mother, since you left us. I can only hope you are smiling down at your three grown grandchildren and your four wonderful great-grandchildren. Ohhh, how you'd love them all ... "

Thank you so much for visiting my blog; your comments are greatly appreciated. I apologize for not getting to all of your posts. I will visit as time permits.

Judy, this is a very beautiful tribute and message. In many ways your mother has a helping hand in the outcome of these beautiful children you write of. It is a special time to reflect. Your image warms the heart and a reminder of HIS presence.
God Bless.

Who wouldn't love this shot, dear Judy!!! A wonderful way of remembering your Mother, nested in your heart like the Sun is nested in the clouds, forever shining warm!

What a great photograph! I wrote something a long time ago about watching the sun rise in Nantucket. I called it the "Ghost of the Golden Hours" it may be on my website. Anyway, this photo reminds me about some passage from it regarding the sun turning its way through the universe. Truly a great shot here.
