Been a long time since I've seen hues of that type in the sky - all we see these days is shades of grey. Never thought I'd say this...but I guess it's time to start singing "Rain rain go away, come again next year!"...oh well, atleast move up north! Your image made me also linger and wish time would stop at just such a moment - just for a bit, not too long mind you!
PS = Hehe, if you were to say what Weetabix secretly wishes for, there'd be alot more ppl thronging this blog:-)
A, I wished too, so many times..and when I was a child, I'd close my eyes like the shutter of a camera & I'd want to capture it forever..trying to see it with my eyes closed.. And btw, I really hope you're not who people think you may be.
i can remember, of many sunset skies, I wished if time would freez and just be the eternity. I get intoxicated by coulds-sky-sunlight promenade. Btw, It's august starting from today!
wouldnt it be lovely if time stood still and you could treasure the moment forever... then i feel the moment wouldnt be so treasured if it became a familiar feeling.... strange but beautiful ways of nature. and bravo, you have captured the feel, the very essence...marvellous shot
This is an absolutely stunning photo. And knowing how quickly sunsets fade, you captured this one at the perfect moment. Don't you wish scenes like this can last an eternity?
Weetabix - Thanks for stumbling by. do drop in again. As for the RB question, I leave that unanswered. :-)
Geetanjali - Never for too long but should linger around enough.
Yours Truly...Conman - It doesn't need to make sense all the time to everyone. I guess writing around a picture is a personal choice. It does not always have to be poetry.
Poison, musafir - Shot it that way with a little underexposure to get the effect. No touching up.
please A i wanna ask u afavor ...i want u to visit this blog and i wanna see ur great comments there its for a genius and soo creative poet called hopeless poet(http://hopelesspoet.blogspot.com/) pls A ..and tell me ur opinion
Wonderful! You capture that moment when we see a perfect sky so well, and so simply, so succinctly. The title is excellent as well. It is really part of the poem, because it explains the suject matter. The notion of an "illustrated" or painted firmament is perfect.
There are so many times when we wish that the 'moment' would become infinite....its just that you turned to look at the sky! Are you real? You write like a dream........ -.:M:.
There is a magic in the air that permeates through the very soul of my existence. There is a stillness in the night that floods my senses beyond my imagination. There is a madness inside of me that overflows in everything that I create. There is a past behind me that is overcrowded with memories that drain me out.

English August... what you're written with that picture makes no sense whatsoever (to me).
Do people HAVE TO write poetry along with a picture?
have u altered tht pic?
it looks soo surreal.
cool lines..
You know what? When I get a chance to look at the sky, I tell the person sitting next to me… WOW, look at that!
If it’s my mom, she says… Hmm… without even looking
If it’s my sis, she says… nothing
If it’s my dad, I don’t even say it aloud
If my niece overhears, she says… havent you seen the red sky before? I have.
the picture is wounderful ....it says alot ...i share u ur feeling A ...:)
Is this photograph for real?!
nice pic mate.. not sure abt the poem as usual tho...maybe i'm just not a poem fan...
but nice pic
for resons not known, whenever i've seen a deep red sky, i feel something is wrong..
but guess one can understand why you would wish for a sky eternally surreal like this..
breathtaking picture, wonderfully expressed with words :)
A, I wished too, so many times..and when I was a child, I'd close my eyes like the shutter of a camera & I'd want to capture it forever..trying to see it with my eyes closed..
And btw, I really hope you're not who people think you may be.
There is so much to see in that sky, and nothing at all. Since you felt the infinite moment, it felt more peaceful than cluttered.
came here through jaded.... lovely pic and gr8 last couple of posts... think the templates awesome too...
i can remember, of many sunset skies, I wished if time would freez and just be the eternity. I get intoxicated by coulds-sky-sunlight promenade.
Btw, It's august starting from today!
amazing hues :)!
Probably your best snapshot ever. May I copy it?
amazing picture
though the poetry dosent really go with it ...
hey come over to my blog this week i am celebrating friendship week
wouldnt it be lovely if time stood still and you could treasure the moment forever...
then i feel the moment wouldnt be so treasured if it became a familiar feeling....
strange but beautiful ways of nature. and bravo, you have captured the feel, the very essence...marvellous shot
now this is a breathtaking shot...and I agree beautfiul moments like this should be infinite...if that is what you are refering to?
I've had that sense of sudden connection to the sky too.
I think that this is my favourite so far.
what a shot. you need to put together a calendar dude :)
wow what a stunning picture.
what had become of you? beauty.
This is an absolutely stunning photo. And knowing how quickly sunsets fade, you captured this one at the perfect moment. Don't you wish scenes like this can last an eternity?
Feels like that photograph has captured a single heartbeat and kept it still ... but only for a moment.
Though very 'vintage "A"' this one,i liked it for reasons more than one.
---> the pic ofcourse!it does seem unreal but gives me a feel that ive seen it before....sometime in the past.
---->there are times i've felt what this "truly conman" says,why push words into pics when the pic conveys meaning anyway.
But this one asked for words,to complement the beauty the colours convey.
"I turned
To see
What the sky
Had become
For me"
How wud it be if you could replace "the sky" with "my sky".....?
"I stared
And wished
That that minute
Would become
Infinite"
the 'minute' you are talking about probably is beyond just the treat the sky offered then.....?
loved it :)
Thats shot is utterly stunning, as is the piece accompanying it. Words are not enough. :)
stunning photo. exquisite wordplay. you never disappoint, a.

What a beautiful poem and what a beautiful picture too
A, you have outdone yourself. This photo is breath-takingly beautiful. I can only imagine what it must have been like to experience it first-hand.
U know, I really didnt think that you really shot that sky, I mean it is such dull grey nowadays!
btw, it is really strange that all these days I actually did associate you to the face of RB :)
ah, that's real nice....all of it...
have been unable to use the net lately....
the photograph is too beautiful for words and the words are like capturing an eternity in a blink.
kaashyapeya - Sure.
jawaher - Will go over and have a look. Is it yours? ;-)
Ubermensch, finnegan, luz de la luna, Poems and Writings, vAgue - Thanks.

Anonymous Poet - Thanks. The title indeed is a part of the poem.
