Devonport is a small city, and it's where my dad lives in his two story house. Today I took some photos of a typical winters sunset with a mild evening.
The first photo is the view from dads house, and the pink/orange can just been seen at the horizon along with a few clouds to the left. The beach is to the right just down the hill, to the left is more ocean plus rural scenery. From the kitchen, dinning room, lounge room, each of the 4 bedrooms, plus the billiard room along with the two garages, the patio upstairs and down I can see the sea. My father of course knows of this view and sometimes can tell me what the sea is like, a lot of it is from memory :) for those whom don't know, my dad is legally blind.
The Rural View down level with the sea
This view is around from the beach and of course taken on our way home. (My husband and myself)
Oh M these are beautiful what a fantastic view. I love that your Dad has memories that let him remember something that is no doubt a huge wonderful part of his amazing life.
ReplyDeleteI would never leave there I think. HUGS xo G
Oh B, thanks :)Lovely view if you like looking at the sea. I am used to what I see there. Hugs M xox
DeleteWhat a lovely view! Gorgeous photos!
ReplyDeleteThanks Beth. I have a new camera, but I will continue to post photos from my other 2 cameras.
Deletewhat beautiful views and i agree, it's good that your dad can remember them. hope you are well xxx
ReplyDeleteAlways the sea is different, and it is lovely to wake up to see the sea.
DeleteWow what a bloody awesome view, I love it..............
ReplyDeleteJo-Anne, it is a lovely view one I take for granted seeing as I see it every week for days at a time. At home I have mountains to look at in the distance with some power lines in the way :)
DeleteIt's a great argument for embracing and enjoying what each day has to offer - you never know when you'll have to rely on your memories. The shading in the sky is magnificent - I just hope your father's memory can take him there whenever he wishes.
ReplyDeleteYou are right, you never know what will happen, it's good to remember, or at least be able to :)
DeleteSuper sunset pictures.
ReplyDeleteGreetings,
Filip
Thanks Filip & Kristen...I did not fiddle with the photo, they are as they are :)
DeleteBeautiful skies. A shame your dad cannot see them but he has his memories.
ReplyDelete'Tis a shame Diane, but that's life.
