Alabama

This is a view of the Mississippi River from the St James Hotel in Selma, Alabama. It's been my computer background alternately for several years, since I took the picture. It was a little after 7 am, it was February, but looking outside you'd never know it. The way the sun just hit the brick building across the alley was beautiful, and ever since my childhood princess pink room, I've always been calmed by a warm sunlight hitting a pink wall.

Anyway, I think this picture really shows how light hitting a surface can just act as an automatic comfort.
