African Skies

African Skies

Zimbabwe
July 2001

Tonight’s sunset is stunning. A big ball of fire drops quickly and then beautiful hues of pinks and blues and peach fill our skyscape.  I think of the song by Paul Simon, African Skies. It is easy to understand why everyone falls in love with this land. Every new view is beautiful. We watch with “ohs” and “ahs”.  As beautiful as  yesterday’s sunset, just like the day before and the day before, this is the most beautiful sunset we have ever seen. We snapped one picture after another and I wonder how many sunset photos I will have by the end of this trip
