Friday Art-A Georgian Bay Sunset

We have a running joke in our family about "another Georgian Bay Sunset"
photo.  We probably have thousands between us.  Why is it that we always feel compelled to take another ?  It may be that they all seem to be unique and thus every sunset is a new work of art and a new experience.  It may be that every experience is like being enveloped in a brilliant work of art being created in that moment by the Master artist Himself and thus we try to capture that moment.  There is also the reality that no photo can ever fully capture the experience, although a few have come close, and thus we continue to seek after that elusive capture.  

I know I have personally taken photos, written songs and painting pictures and still don't feel that I have exhausted the well, nor quite done it justice.  And so, the effort continues.  Here is a recent contribution   from a few weeks back.  It is a sketch done on a cut off board from a construction project next door, painted at the beach on Georgian Bay.  It now hangs in the Edie Gallery just outside Penetanguishene, Ont...ha ha ( inside joke).
