Long  walk at the end of the day, the wrong gate was locked, shoulders were starting to ache from carrying my gear, 100 degree weather, several large sets of stairs.

There are some moments, many really, that cannot be adequately captured w/a camera.  Some moments that contain within them more than just a visual.  Having made it up those stairs, having pushed through emotional and physical pain, seeing a nice warm sunset split by a lamp-post, having perhaps a Delbert Shoopman III moment, when I realized that no matter how weird and maybe even bad and good and fun and uneven the last few weeks were, it was all part of something that, if I work a bit at it, can be a helluva good time.

And that there are fine moments to pick out of any situation.  That if you want it, more importantly, if you need it, you can find a reason to plaster a shit-eating grin on your face.

So this shot, while it can never get all that across, reminds me of the actual moment yesterday evening that contained all those things.
