Bali Sunset



(This picture can be enlarged by clicking on it.)

The South Pacific is supposed to conjure up visions of sunshine, palm trees and water as far as the eye can see. Those visions became reality for me back in 1987, when I captured this sunset on the island of Bali.

The picture above was scanned from a slide.

Well, I just had to click on this one, George! So much going on. The black silhouettes, and the sun. Instead of black and white, it's yellow and white, so beautiful!

Have I told you, that I grew up in Borneo. Very often, I doodle coconut trees at sunset at the beach, and a little thrash hut.

My friend, a therapist tells me it is because I want to go home.

Your photo is what is in my doodle.

I loved Bali. We had the best Christmas there.
Our hotel was washed away by the ocean a while back.
:(
