The Sun's Offspring



As the sun made ready to drop behind the trees this evening, I grabbed my phone to record a picture of the golden sky. Even as I returned to my project in the kitchen (making nut granola), I felt compelled to go back to the window for a second look. 

I ended up snapping successive shots during the next couple of minutes to capture first one, then two smaller sun-offspring that seemed to be falling into the trees at the same rate of speed as their parent.  There must have been an explanation for this, and yet I honestly didn’t want to spoil the magic and beauty of the moment with technical reasoning from some textbook.  I preferred the experience.  The sheer awesomeness of it.
