Firsts

Going over my photos, which I just uploaded to my netbook, I found these two shots which make me, well, proud. They don't really show the magnificence of the actual scenes, as I saw them, but they are enough to remind me of what I actually felt.

Our eyes see more than our cameras; and what my eyes witnessed was the first full moon of the decade in all its shining grandeur, shortly after the clock chimed 12, midnight, January 1, 2010.

Then just a few hours later—while everyone was still snoring, after the revelry at Punta de Fabian, I clicked away at the first spectacular sunrise of the decade!

In both magical moments, I felt and saw the glint of grace.

    Hello, Tribo, Yay, and Mabelita,

    I am a tad (a lot!) too late. But not late enough (I hope) to say, "thank you" for your comments. God bless you all!
