On my walk last night, I caught flashes of this amazing red sunset through the woods. I ran fast as I could, cutting through thick brush and trees, getting caught in brambles, almost tripping over fallen branches to stumble finally into the field as the scene was coming to a climax. I had my headphones on and was playing “It’s Over” by ELO.
Imagine seeing that sky, at this time of this year in Nova Scotia, with snow forecast for the next day and hearing these lyrics: “Summer came and passed away, Hardly seemed to last a day But it’s over and what can I do? …When you kick out the sea and the sun says goodbye” (ELO) I’ll forever hear that song when I see a sunset and will always now see a scene like this when I hear it. Have a lovely evening or day, friends. Until the next one.

Life doesn’t come together like that often enough
Right?! Wish I’d had my camera with me.
That scene was worth running for! Beautifully expressed Ellie. ❤️
Thank you, Lynne. I’m so glad you liked it. We miss having you here in our maritime environnent.
A dramatic goodbye, if ever there was one, Ellie. The perfect image to accompany your song
Thanks, Janet, it was worth getting scratched up to see and capture it. I’m only sorry I didn’t have my camera and had to make do with the phone.
Another amazing photo. And that was quite appropriate to be listening to that song. It is a wonderful memory to have an an amazing view to recall. ❤️
Thank you, Linda. It was a wonderful sky, I hope you saw it yourself. And the track, as you say, was perfect!
