Coastal Sunset

ship rotting near shore prismatic colors dancing... ocean’s reflections nature kisses sea multi-hues will fade at dusk... another dawn waits *Based on the photo of the ship in the sea at sunset. Written by November 5, 2011 for PD’s Sunset contest

With the images of a rotting ship in my vista. I see a maritime rustic painting that surely delights my eyes. I see a creation of man with so many stories. Good luck in pd's contest Carolyn < I'm fine by the way. My monies are sorted. I do hope to have my flat in the New Year, with Lorena joining me. Thank you always for your kind support over the years. Many hugs for you :)

very beautiful imagery , sunset is my favourite time of day, when its not pouring flipping rain ( did that sound bitter) here the sunsets are colourful and lovely to see. Best of luck in the contest Carolyn.
