Thanks Jude. It was so cool I had the Big T trying to find somewhere to stop the car so I could get out and photograph it. Not easy from memory, but he is very understanding.

🙂 We were driving and I made my partner stop the car so I could get out, and cross the road before the light changed.

The first one is absolutely classic and gorgeous. The second one is also love. Less spectacular, but beautiful.

I love the quote and the first shot is one I love, too. Those types of rays always remind me of pictures of the glory of God shining down from heaven. 🙂 Of course, the shell photo is lovely, too, although in a very different way. I enjoy finding the beauty in small things often overlooked.
