This late afternoon I looked outside And saw this orange light I knew the sky must be beautiful So I rushed out to catch this sight I held my breath for what I saw Just couldn't believe my eyes Beams of sunlight struck the air And out my mouth came only sighs I took my car and drove towards This sinking sun in speed For it sank quickly behind the clouds A breathtaken sight indeed And suddenly there were my sheep Like statues in the air They didn't get any goodies from me So they thought that wasn't fair I snapped my shots in a hasty way The sun sank fast as you can see Just one layer of light was left of it All getting dark around of me This is the end of sunset here In minutes it took only fifteen Today on September the third I share with you what I've seen A rose is a rose is a rose...I guess... Feel free to use the pictures on my website. http://communities.msn.com/Titiasplace/ [This message has been edited by Titia Geertman (edited 09-03-2001).] |

And thank you SO much for sharing what you see. Breathtaking. Be careful, you may find a herd of us showing up on your doorstep to see your lovely scenery first hand If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |

You have a way with pictures and poetry. I was at your site and found it very interesting. What is B001? The inside of B004? And if so, what is B004? It is more than a greenhouse, I think. Stunning picture of Cloud1. And your family pictures are fun. Also, in Blue Shield, what does the sign say? Do you take these pictures? |

Marq, thank you Catalinamoon, mine too and it's just beginning in this season Margie dear, what can I say to such lovely words than James, thanks Tracey, you're all so very welcome Mirrorman, I tried to send you a mail with all the answers, but got it back, are you sure your emailadress is still right? Send me a mail and I'll answer your questions Janet Marie, always glad to see you, yes a digital camera is quite handy in situations like this. Glad I could share it with you. Decaflame, thanks for reading sweet girl Seymour, thanks for reading, glad you enjoyed BloomingRose, well I just had to grab my camera, it was all there for only 15 minutes. When it's not raining this season will give those sunsets almost every night, sometimes it's all dark purple. That's one thing why I love to live in the countryside so much Titia A rose is a rose is a rose...I guess... |

Titia, what a beautiful sunset, and your words wrapped around it are magnificant. However I think you should have given the sheep some treats Wonderful presentation. *~If you can't say anything nice about someone, don't say anything at all*~ |
