Coming Home

Last night was one of those moments when I was in the right place at the right time and I was able to think quickly on my feet. I walked out to photograph the sunset and after I had finished I was walking back to the house and I thought, "Wow, the house looks pretty nice in that soft evening light". Seconds later I was photographing the house when I heard Lenore coming home from work. I made a quick decision and I waited until her headlights were past me before I tripped the shutter. The long exposure allowed the camera to record the cars taillights as it pulled into the driveway. I just love how this image turned out. I praise you Lord for blessing me with a wonderful family and a warm place to sleep at night. chris
