By The Master's Brush ...


"If I can put one touch of rosy sunset
into the life of any man or woman, 
I shall feel that 
I have worked with God."
                ~ G.K. Chesterton
                                   ~ 1874-1936


God gives a master class in
painting the sky with this
summer sunset in June
at Trexler Memorial Park,
Allentown, Pennsylvania.

Crimson Sunset ...



"Softly drops the crimson sun:
Softly down from overhead,
Drop the bell-notes, one by one,
Melting in the melting red ..."
                          ~"Angelus"
                                 ~ Susan Coolidge
                                                1835-1905

Softly, As In An Evening Sunset ...



"Softly, as in an evenin' sunset
the light that gave you glory
will take it all away" ...

So sang the wonderful Bobby Darin in his version of 
"Softly, As In A Morning Sunrise," from
Sigmund Romberg and Oscar Hammerstein's
1928 operetta, "The New Moon."

This sunset stole softly into the sky on a hot
June evening at Trexler Memorial Park,
Allentown, Pennsylvania.

Palettes ...


"Life is beautiful. Life is short. Live every day as if it were your last.
No regrets. Paint the sky your favorite color." ~ Author Unknown

Palettes of color sweep the sky in a winter sunset at
Trexler Memorial Park, Allentown, Pennsylvania.

All That Heaven Allows ...



"Sunsets are so beautiful that they almost seem as if we were
looking through the gates of heaven." ~ John Lubbock

The gorgeous sky just before sunset last night at Trexler Memorial Park, Allentown, PA reminded me of the title of the 1955 movie, "All That Heaven Allows."

Painter's Brush



"Painting is the silence of thought and the music of light."
                                                     ~ Orhan Pamuk

It seems as if a painter's brush swept across the sky
 to create tonight's sunset at Trexler Memorial Park, Allentown, Pennsylvania.
