Did You See the Sunset?

It didn't last long - but it was beautiful.  I've seen several of them lately that have been breath taking.  I don't know if it's the weather, or if I've simply paid more attention of late.  It's unusual for me NOT to notice as I see everything with an artist's eye for "How would I paint that?  What colors would I use?"

I've said it many times before, and it's rather cliche, but always remember to stop and appreciate the beauty that surrounds us.  I find beauty in places that most people wouldn't think about - like the drops of rain falling off the street sign, the dense fog along the timberline, the foam left in the wake of an ice cold wave along the coast.  Sometimes the overall picture doesn't strike us as beautiful, but if you take the time to stop, study, and see something for what it is, and what it can be, you will be amazed.  I know I am.  Constantly.
