Sunset on the Schuylkill River Trail and More
Written By Hoang My Linh (Hoang Phuoc Kimchi)
Yesterday I enjoyed a stroll along the Schuylkill River Trail during sunset. I was delighted with how beautiful the lighting looked in the pictures from Thursday’s sunset hours. It’s no wonder that photographers call that time the “golden hour” for photography.
As I reflect on the past few years since I’ve moved back to the U.S., God’s counsel rings true. I’m grateful for my heavenly parents’ guidance and protection from the evil ones:
With the merciful you will show yourself merciful;
With a blameless man you will show yourself blameless;
With the pure you will show yourself pure;
And with the devious you will show yourself shrewd.
For you will save the humble people,
But will bring down haughty looks. — Psalm 18:25-27

An unexpected finding. This night shot of the Schuylkill on my way back home turned out better than I had anticipated.
