These three final reflections amazed me with
a dynamic view of clouds reflected in a pond,
 the brilliance of the sun
spilling over the calm ocean shore,
and a candle, almost at the end of its brilliance,
 reflected in a mirror.
Thank you.
I'll never again take for granted
the beauty of a Reflection
or the
companionship of
my Shadow.

This beautiful Reflection Photograph hangs in my house.
The first time I saw it on Naomi's webpage
I saw the thin dark line separating the Crane from her Reflection.
Tears formed and I wondered why I would cry seeing something so beautiful.
I was the Crane .... the thin dark line beneath "her" separated me from Eldon at  his death ....
yet his reflection touches me and everything about my
slow drifting journey across the pond ...
which is my life.
Thank you, Naomi, for capturing this breathtaking image
"Reflection"
of me and Grandpa.
