This Moment

"A single photo – no words – capturing a simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember."

“This Moment” is a ritual found on Life inspired by theWee Man adopted from SouleMama which was introduced to me by Sarah-Jane. If you find yourself touched by a Moment and would like to participate, post your picture on a Friday and leave your link in the comments section.

    What a great photo! Whoever took it has a talent, I love the angles and everything about it! And the girls look like they are about to have some fun! :)

    Great photo! A bit scary too. I almost wonder when the train is going to come.
    Hows this for a photo taken in Early April on the south east coast of the UK. Not a cloud in the sky!

    Mel, I tried that on Google and Yahoo, and nothing came up. Is it in your facebook photos by chance?

  25. DebraApril 15, 2011 at 6:16 PM

    @ Bella – yeah, the girls are the focal point here. Not the tracks, not the trees, but the girls dressed to kill :)

    @ Kriti – I have to agree :) BTW, love your dad’s stories. Does he know he’s famous now?
    Hugs!

    Nelieta, if every story paints a thousand words, the story of Delinda Correa is one of them! Fascinating tale.
    Which one of these girls lives on the "wrong side of the tracks?" What a story that would make:)

    Beautiful photo. We're on the same track. These ladies balance each other out. Glad we are sharing the journey.

  29. DebraApril 16, 2011 at 1:44 PM

    Brenda – we are on the same track… We were both featured in Traveling Time, and others. In fact, this is how our paths first crossed, then merged. I’m glad we share the journey too!

    Wonderful photo - I love their fingertips touching just at the point the tracks disappear. Great perspective and lines. I love your posts!

    Mari, this photo was taken by Beth Bowen. She does have quite the eye for perspective – as do you. I’m an admirer of your photography.
    Oh, and congratulations on the MEME award!

    cooking varieties - thank you for stopping by. I just did the same and found a scrumptious (and healthy) recipe I hope to try soon.
    Wish I had taken the photo myself, but it was done by Beth Bowen. My daughter is the one with the long gown; hers is the girl with the short dress.
