Come Home, Come Home. It's Suppertime.

This lovely old [150 yrs plus]church is in North Pointe, PA. I moved there to pastor 3 churches in 1998. The photograph does what I think is the awesome wonder of the interaction between Nature and Art. That sun set in pretty much the same place every twilight [depending on the time of year], but that day I was privileged to be there at the exact moment. The camera and the artist are mere eavesdroppers. The end result is nothing short of miraculous. I like to manipulate photos but some are exquisite by themselves. Despite its loveliness, the scene has a kind of sadness to it, thus my title. My mother's favorite radio station, which played all day, used this song [my title] as their parting theme. When I heard it in the twilight of the day, I felt sad. To this day, twilight is a sad time and I hear the song often in my head. Twilight signals the last chance to grab what is left of the day. Whatever I had not accomplished that day was lost. Not a very positive response to a beautiful scene but mine does not change the scene. Copyright 2007 Dell Belew
