Hello Friends,

Good Evening.. today posting is another sunset :P i think its a bit tilted.. hmm.. i have some more sunset shots taken from the 1st to 2nd week of June.. almost everyday we have beautiful sunsets except last weekend and this couple of days..

im in the mood of it.. so here one taken from the usual place - office kitchen window view.. :)

someone email me this Sand & Stone.. i like it very much and love to share with you all


"Sand & Stone"


TWO FRIENDS WERE WALKING
THROUGH THE DESERT
DURING SOME POINT OF THE
JOURNEY, THEY HAD AN
ARGUMENT; AND ONE FRIEND
SLAPPED THE OTHER ONE
IN THE FACE

THE ONE WHO GOT SLAPPED
WAS HURT, BUT WITHOUT
SAYING ANYTHING,
WROTE IN THE SAND

TODAY MY BEST FRIEND
SLAPPED ME IN THE FACE

THEY KEPT ON WALKING,
UNTIL THEY FOUND AN OASIS,
WHERE THEY DECIDED
TO TAKE A BATH

THE ONE WHO HAD BEEN
SLAPPED GOT STUCK IN THE
MIRE! AND STARTED DROWNING,
BUT THE FRIEND SAVED HIM.

AFTER HE RECOVERED FROM
THE NEAR DROWNING,
HE WROTE ON A STONE:

'TODAY MY BEST FRIEND
SAVED MY LIFE'

THE FRIEND WHO HAD SLAPPED
AND SAVED HIS BEST FRIEND
ASKED HIM, 'AFTER I HURT YOU,
YOU WROTE IN THE SAND AND NOW,
YOU WRITE ON A STONE, WHY?'

THE FRIEND REPLIED
'WHEN SOMEONE HURTS US
WE SHOULD WRITE IT DOWN
IN SAND, WHERE WINDS OF
FORGIVENESS CAN ERASE IT AWAY.
BUT, WHEN SOMEONE DOES
SOMETHING GOOD FOR US,
WE MUST ENGRAVE IT IN STONE
WHERE NO WIND
CAN EVER ERASE IT'

LEARN TO WRITE
YOUR HURTS IN
THE SAND AND TO
CARVE YOUR
BENEFITS IN STONE.

THEY SAY IT TAKES A
MINUTE TO FIND A SPECIAL
PERSON, AN HOUR TO
APPRECIATE
THEM, A DAY
TO LOVE THEM, BUT THEN
AN ENTIRE LIFE
TO FORGET THEM.

TAKE THE TIME TO LIVE!

DO NOT VALUE THE THINGS
YOU HAVE IN YOUR LIFE, BUT VALUE
WHO YOU HAVE IN YOUR LIFE!

'Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.'

cheers, terry

Hi Terry,
lovely high-impact intensity :-)
The sky looks really interesting.. i'm not very sure about the roof in the left foreground though.

Still, a good effort.

Hi Nong,
Sunset view ni inda payah sya ulas panjang. Cukup la sya bilang kobihis juga sya kesukaan.

Yang sya tertarik tu... sand & stone. Sapa tulis gia? Cantik la words dia tu nong. Bulih saya copy? Mau print besar-besar simpan di dinding... kalau ko mau satu copy, sya print extra. Bulih ka? Bulih la ba... nanti sya belanja ko gula-gula tuntung sama gula kapas. :)

Majulah Sunset Untuk Negara
Adhan.

Lovely colours Terry. Well composed with good silhouettes. No tilt in my opinion, more to do with the wider focus.

Hi Nong,

i hope it is not fuel being burned up there in the sky for fuel price is becoming dearer and dearer day by day; it looks very much like a furnace in the sky. great colour!

Hello Terry, another great sunset of yours! Well composed with a good technique, well done, thanks!

Aha office kitchen window Terry - sure I recognised this place immediately, but for me to see it in real life I must go visit your office. I know everyone would love to have a view like this. I think the other one was taken more to the right...
Wonderful moments in time sunsets are.
