One Sunday

Just loved the light in this. Taken late afternoon in July.

Images
A lone tree stripped of bark naked and weathered it stands, out stretched twisted branches reaching out, as if they were beckoning hands.
Foreboding clouds settling low as though it were about to rain, something about these images speaks of His loneliness and His pain.
Leaning slightly away upright stones firmly fixed, hard and etched by time, something about these images speaks of hard hearts and narrow minds.
A lone tree casting forth its shadow of grace like a sentinel it stands, perhaps its creations way of reminding humanity who it was that crucified the Son of Man!
Inspired by the photo “One Sunday” by GailD

The tree which moves some to tears of joy is in the eyes of others only a
green thing that stands in the way. Some see Nature all ridicule and
deformity, and some scarce see Nature at all. But to the eyes of the
man of imagination, Nature is Imagination itself.
- William Blake, 1799, The Letters

I do like those words Paul, & it rings true. Thank you.
