This week my sister Shirley and I attended a memorial service for our cousin's wife. On our way along the Trans-Canada Highway somewhere well beyond Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, I rolled down the window and started clicking my little digital camera. We were traveling at 110km/h as the sun was gradually sinking on the western horizon. I appreciated the scene of the sun's rays coming through the clouds against the silhouetted grain elevators and other buildings, oblivious road signs and a string of telephone poles. All I needed was one photo to mark the occasion, and this is the one I felt best portrayed that prairie night sky moment.
