I’d go out into a great big field all alone or in the deep, deep woods and I’d look up into the sky—up—up—up—into that lovely blue sky that looks as if there was no end to its blueness.
And then I’d just feel a prayer.
~ L. M. Montgomery, Anne of Green Gables

there it is.
Bam.
That blue…should have another name.
Agree!
My thought, before seeing the quote, was that only God can create those contrasting colors and we are blessed to be able to see them.
God or something way beyond our comprehension.
Isn’t your reply an oxymoron? 😊
Exactly!
Putting this and Karen’s post from last night. To feel a prayer, and this sky is no place to loose our wings…
I need to jump over and read her post. You peaked my interest. Thanks.
At this time of year it really comes to life 💕
It does!
“And then I’d just feel a prayer”…..how much do I love that?
Smiling. Me too!
Incredible! Love this…
Definitely something way beyond our comprehension.
It is….
No better place to find God than in that which He made…including humanity.

The contrasts in your photo are beautiful. I suppose the same can be said about us humans.
The photographer’s photo is magnificent (not mine – found it on web). And yes , spectacular colors and contrast. Thanks Lulu.
Oh Anne… the wonderful things that came our of her mouth! (Thanks to LMM, of course) perfect choice of image to go with, David!
Amazing, all of it. Thank you Dale
