You Are So Precious..and all we have is this moment

I really do love shooting portraits, and never more than when outside on soft grass, in a gentle breeze and bathed in golden sunlight.
All at once I am reminded of how precious and fleeting life is, the moment I look through the lense and behold a life in front of me, enjoying a single moment that will never be repeated-only relived in years to come,  a memory frozen in time.  The image will live on once the body has turned to dust, but then it will too succumb to age one day, as all things do. Everything on earth ends, even our dear little lonely planet will one day be engulfed by an imploding sun, which, for the time being, continues to light my shot in this one perfect moment, creating a lovely memory...
