Skywatch Friday: The Ragged Edge

IMG 0587
Looking west, the sunset. Looking back, the strange purple light of dusk. This is the swing bridge in Surf City, North Carolina, just yards from the best Chinese restaurant in the world, Nikki's. Down the road, the turtle hospital, and a few miles the other way, home.

  1. Awesome captures and a glorious way to end your day! There is always so much beauty if we can just take the time to look up and out, look around you, but it is frequently easier to look inside ourselves and where we may not always find beauty or happiness. You find it wherever you look! Thank you for sharing it with us! Have a wonderful day, Sandy!

  16. Your first picture is absolutely gorgeous. There's a similar swing bridge in North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, but nothing like Nikki's.
