Sunset Sunday

I'm sorry to say that website has been stealing my photos again. I am placing this one in the photostream so that I will find out if other websites are also stealing my photos. I have sent DMCA takedown notices to the thieving website that I know about.
I'm sorry to subject you to that bit of ugliness. It seems to be a never-ending problem. I also noticed the photos from a few of your websites on the same bad website. I contacted a few of you about it but the website is vast so I couldn't search through every photo. For the rest, I suggest that you google the name of your blog. If this particular scraping website is stealing your photos, their site will show up in your search.

Back to more pleasant topics, earlier this week, the Labraduo and I saw a pink-hued sunset over the nearby high peaks.

The view toward our local ski area.
Then, to the north of the ski area. I loved the more subtle colors over the snowy and rocky peaks.
The pink glow radiated from the mountain tops all to our west.
Thanks for all the nice comments yesterday. I am a bit better today, although my head still aches too badly to be able to think clearly.

Shyla and I pretended that I was fine this morning so we could head out into the mountain world for sunrise. I've had a lot of experience with pain (mostly spinal) throughout my life, and the approach that works best for me is to try to get out and do what I love, almost no matter what. Then, I can come home and rest if needed - but at least I've done one fun thing for the day!

Sometimes, I manage to forget my pain, and I genuinely smile. That happened, albeit briefly, this morning as Shyla and I played in the sunshine.
For some reason, this photo of Shyla retrieving at sunrise made me smile. It's classic Shyla - her eyes emanated sweetness in the soft light of the sunrise.

  14. Your philosophy of including beauty and a smile in every day no matter what is notable and noble. This beautiful way of viewing life is why your followers keep coming back to visit. Thieves can never take that from you.

  15. If we use them on our blogs, they're bound to be stolen - it's too bad, but I really don't think you can stop the unscrupulous ones. Hope by now your head is clear and pain-free. Shyla's old-new toy is the best!

  17. Ugh - this is just ridiculous. No worries about the ugliness. I guess this is the chance you take if you blog. I am so sorry you are dealing with this....again.

  18. Why are people stealing photos?? I guess it is a form of flattery - I mean, your photos are so awesome they are worth stealing. Still totally wrong though.

    Glad you are feeling a bit better than yesterday.

  19. I can't understand why people steal other people's photos and posts. I suppose it should be taken as a compliment but I think it would be much easier to just ask!!

    Beautiful photos, just spectacular. It would sure make me smile.

  20. Don't people have anything better to do or are they that UN-talented that they have to steal your work
