Setting Sun

Setting Sun
The afternoon was spent with family and my wife's brother.

DSC 4449

The doctors have told him there is nothing left they can do to combat the cancer he has but to get things prepared. I have for a very long time not taken my camera to family gatherings but on this day I took my camera to capture what I could of the family together. It was not the whole family but a big portion of it.


this photo kind of summed up the whole day, now we have to wait .

A lovely sunset image and it looks like a great grape tramping session. Very sorry, though, to read of the sad background in your notes. A somewhat qualified HFF, Steve.
