Not Fade Away

Most pictures I take are of reflected light.

Now and then I take a few of the light source itself.

If you know the right spot to stand, every summer solstice . . .

. . . you can watch the sun set exactly . . .

. . . behind . . .

. . . the Gerald . . .

. . . Desmond . . .

. . . Bridge.

It’s our local Stonehenge.

More’s the shame, legislators in this broke state are talking about tearing down our solstice bridge and putting up something else, no doubt with a less perfect shape for the sun to frame.

Everything goes away eventually.

The gull sees farthest who flies highest.

It's nice to see the view from where you fly to.

I'm also glad to see that the king is gone but he's not forgotten.

Doesn't your state have enough other things to do with the money they don't have? Educate kids perhaps?

Love it... don't have money but have money to tear down and rebuild a bridge... that is already there.
