A Beautiful Moment

Normally, sunsets are not my favorite subject. There is no particular reason why I don’t make a bigger deal out of them: they are just not my favorite “thing”. Usually, I prefer the colorful drama and symbolic beginnings of a sunrise but, when a special opportunity presents itself you have to take advantage of it. Never be afraid to stop what you are doing and enjoy a beautiful moment - with a camera or without. Life is short; Eat dessert first.

So often in my travels, or my everyday moments, I see things that inspire thought but, don’t always produce action. Driving along the highways and back roads of New England I see some wonderful scenes but, too often I fail to stop and take advantage of that moment due to a schedule, an inconvenience, or a multitude of other excuses. When I don’t stop I am wrong… very wrong. When I do stop I am investing in myself, my craft, and my memories.
