Fading Light in the Sky

These four shots were taken a few seconds apart, in chronological order, as the sun was setting.  Each one has a shift in the amount of light and color.  Overall, the color drained away as the sun set.

Below is a poem posted in the 'Poetry in Motion' program in the MTA subways of New York:

"Heaven

Patrick Phillips, b. 1970

It will be the past

and we'll live there together

Not as it was to live 

but as it is remembered

It will be the past.

We'll all go back together

Everyone we ever loved,

and lost, and must remember.

It will be the past.

And it will last forever.
