The Current Normal – Cotton Candy

Now that the sun is rising later and setting earlier, I am able to capture its beauty.

These photos were taken on August 18, 2020.

Cotton Candy

Pink cotton candy fills azure skies,

fluffing itself up before your eyes.

Beautiful scene without any doubt,

floating ethereally about,

Fast changing colours, as sun goes down,

adorning the sky with golden crown.

After working for 43+ years (38 years 7 months with my last company), I finally got that promotion I waited my entire career for……retirement. I have been exploring this new career for the past 3+ years and while it is not always exciting, the chance to do what I want for myself and my family instead of what my company wanted me to do has been rewarding. While I still miss the social aspect of working with a team of great people, I have managed to keep in touch with many from my former team and I have many friends and family members who now fulfill this part of my life. Now that my Patty has retired, we are able to spend more time in pursuits and with people who are near and dear to us. I enjoy photography, gardening, working with my hands, walking, cycling, skiing, travelling, reading and creating special photo and video productions obtained in my first pastime. I may not become wealthy in any of these pursuits, but I already feel I am rich in life experiences far beyond any expectation.

  4. Fantastic photos and beautiful colours. I usually go to bed very early and end up missing out on sunsets during the summer months. That’s another reason why I love fast approaching autumn – I get to capture sunsets and be in bed by 9pm! Every cloud has a silver lining! Thanks for sharing and have a good day 😀 Aiva

    1. Thanks Aiva. Yes, for some reason, my enthusiasm to climb in the car and head out for the 5:30 AM sunrise or the 10 PM sunset has waned this year. Maybe I will get lucky while we are in Jasper in 2 weeks to see some good sunrises and sunsets. Thanks for reading Aiva. Allan

    1. Thankyou. This was a spectacular display right outside my front door. It made me want to be a kid again and lay in the grass looking up at the clouds. Thanks for reading and commenting.
