I actually took a moment to grab my camera the other day. It's kind of sad that doing so is on the rare side for me right now. I am SO close to being done with my room, which I hope means I'll get back into some kind of a normal routine, but I'm just… Continue reading Summer Sunset

Edge Of The Storm
I rarely get a good vantage of the storms that come through because of how we are situated. Last night, even though it isn't an awesome shot, it is still kind of impressive because the clouds were ominous looking.
Another Pink Sky
We were treated with another extremely showy sunset last night. Also with so much pink in the sky it seemed a little unreal. There was a big difference last night, though. All that gorgeous pink? It was in the east. I'm not sure I've ever seen a sky quite like it. On the horizon to… Continue reading Another Pink Sky
Spectacular Sunset
I very narrowly avoided missing this stunning show last night. There are times that I really hate the angle and positioning of my house and not having a window in a good position to show off the sunset. When BG and I stepped outside to take pictures, everything had a pink tinge to it. It… Continue reading Spectacular Sunset
Color Series: White Day 3
For anyone that wants to play along, my only suggestions (suggestions, not rules!) are: The color is the dominate focus in the image as opposed to a small spot in a lot of other colors. Drop a comment so I can follow along on your color journey. That's it! I hope you play along and… Continue reading Color Series: White Day 3
Color Series: White Day 1
White will be the last of the regular color series. I will start a slightly different phase after this. For anyone that wants to play along, my only suggestions (suggestions, not rules!) are: The color is the dominate focus in the image as opposed to a small spot in a lot of other colors. Drop… Continue reading Color Series: White Day 1

Color Series: Blue Day 1
This one is going to be a bit of a challenge for me since my usual photos are macro and of flowers and blue just isn't a color you often see in that area. We'll see how well I pull it off. For anyone that wants to play along, my only suggestions (suggestions, not rules!)… Continue reading Color Series: Blue Day 1
Snow Coated
I really should be getting outside to try for more frozen bubble shots, but I'm not sure that is going to happen today. As is typical for me, cake mode is followed by crash mode and my energy and motivation levels are near zero today. The one thing I'd like to try and get done… Continue reading Snow Coated
Snow Drenched
I'll be rushing around like crazy trying to get this cake done in time for candles later today as I didn't get nearly as much done yesterday as I'd hoped. I have no progress pics this go round because BG has insisted on keeping it a surprise, so pics will wait until she has seen… Continue reading Snow Drenched
Frosted World
I had to brave the bitterly cold temps yesterday to get a couple of much needed things to work on BG's cake. I wasn't going to pass up the opportunity to get some photos of the amazing effect the snow was having on the trees, so I drug my camera along with me. The roads… Continue reading Frosted World
Revisiting: Snowy Tree In Black & White
This is pretty much the view today with a beautiful, but windy snowfall. I'm hoping the roads stay decent as I'm supposed to get the inspection done today. It is such a pretty snow so far I just want to snuggle in with a cup of coffee by the window and watch.
Gift From Mother Nature
As much as I've complained this winter about not getting much snow, I'm going to take the timing of this as a gift. We aren't supposed to get much and we are hovering on the edge of blizzard conditions with the wind, but it is snow, so I'm happy. Though I will say that it… Continue reading Gift From Mother Nature
Revisiting Frozen Fog Trees
This is another one from a couple of years ago. The fog coated everything much heavier than this last one we got. It also formed a little differently and didn't produce the dramatic spikes this last one did either. It is kind of amazing how different these same events can manifest.
Frozen Fog On The Trees
Bold January Sunset
It was a day behind our usual, but yesterday I spent the day getting all of our inside decorations taken down. It is always a little depressing seeing the house so bare again after a month of lights and colors. It was only the inside that got done. The outside is still buried in snow,… Continue reading Bold January Sunset
Icy Lights
Today is our annual movie, games, and great foods day. It looks like we will also be ringing in the new year with a lovely winter storm. Depending on how it tracks, we will either get more ice and yuck or we will get upwards of 6 inches of snow, so it could be interesting… Continue reading Icy Lights
Winter Solstice
May the shortest day of the year remind you that the light will return. And that we are that much closer to kicking this year to the curb. For any of you astronomy and star lovers, reminder that Jupiter and Saturn align tonight for the first time in over 800 years (the night part). Look… Continue reading Winter Solstice
Snowy Dreams
This year has proven that I really wouldn't do well living in an area that didn't get any snow. Other than the one extremely odd pre-Halloween snow, we have missed every single snow producing system that has made it way by. We haven't even had a flurry. A friend in NY posted a photo on… Continue reading Snowy Dreams
Too Dark O’Clock
Being up early enough to get a sunrise shot is the pits, but it looks like I'll get to see quite a few as long as I have contractors working. I'm going to be a zombie by the time this project is finished. Mornings are made even more difficult when I have to herd the… Continue reading Too Dark O’Clock
