Mosque at sunset
By Johna Till Johnson
Sometimes beauty just hits you like a punch in the stomach.
I was running late for dinner when I saw sunset-tinged clouds behind the neighborhood mosque. I just had to stop and take the picture.
On Fridays the haunting tones of the jumu’ah call to prayer at 1 PM reminds me the week is almost over.
This time, it was a reminder that the day was almost over.
Another summer day drawing to a close…
