Winter Rural Roads

Ive always wanted THIS picture… The snow blanketing each branch beautifully. The warmth felt, although its snowing and cold. The snow covered road. As I was driving home, I admired the trees and knew I was coming in to get the dog and my camera. I put on my 85mm macro lens and went out.Continue reading “Winter Rural Roads”

All the snow here fell Thursday and Friday, we had an awesome day Saturday to enjoy our nephew’s 1st and then the snow began again on Sunday, in lighter amounts.

Today is a reminder, of my Granpa G. He was quite a man, a hard working husband, grandpa and father, who always made time for all of us. He had a health scare before this, however today was his fate.

Today’s inspiration is from our hydrangea tree from our front entrance. We have one on each side, they offer a beautiful pop of bright white, and a soothing pink in the fall.

Macro Monday | 1st Snowfall

1st snowfall of the winter of 2025-2026 was this weekend, much less than they forecasted, thankfully! A reminder, the cold is coming, a time to retreat for many, once the snow is here to stay I love getting out and capturing the beauty and purity of a snow covered scene.

Winter Warmth | January 22, 2015

The kids and I were ready well before the bus was to arrive, the snow had lightly frosted the tree tips and the sky was a warm orange. After feeling in a bit of a photography rut (which just so happened to be after we returned from Cuba – a post of these photos toContinue reading “Winter Warmth | January 22, 2015”
