Night Sky

There's a reason artists throughout the ages have painted the sky. There is nothing more beautiful that the sky in the early morning hours, and late in the evening just before nightfall. 
Maybe it's because the mind hasn't kicked into gear for the beginning of the day, or because it's coasting at the end of the day, but it seems during those hours it's possible to let the clutter fall away and experience color, texture, and vibrance that cannot be described with words.
After all, words are as crude as building blocks when it comes to describing beauty. Granted, there are some who use the blocks more wisely, but for me I'm struck mute.
I took this picture Monday night as I walked out of yoga class. 
You might not realize it, but I doctored this photo up with Photoshop....not that it needed it, but in a moment of weakness, like so many artists, I thought I could capture it in a new way.
