Spent Saturday morning out on some of the backroads around Mt. St Helens. The lighting was a little bright and so I had to work on this shot a bit to make it look better. The views up there took my breath away at times.

Just a quick post. This is one of my christmas presents this year. Forced the bulb to bloom early indoors, and then had a sunny day to shoot a picture of it.

It is that time of year again. Cooler weather and rain. But the harvest is what is important.....

Small Wonders

Sometimes the smallest things make us go Woah!!
The Beauty of mother nature filling our lives with wonder. As in this little flower that looks so perfect! And yet what is perfection? Different people see perfection in many ways that may not be the same as we see them. This shot makes this flower look like it has no flaws, but when you see the rest of the flower, you understand more of life's mysteries. Even with it's flaws this flower is perfect in my eyes. Look not for the perfection in people, look at their flaws and Love them as they are.

Moon in the Trees

Day gives way to night
Darkness blankets my soul
Questions fill my thoughts
My Heart seeks answers

Love is the answer I seek

Sometimes You Just Want to Be Alone

At times the pain makes us weak
We fall back within ourselves
Then the pain is gone
We flourish in Life and Love again

Hiding Tree

Hiding Tree,

My Heart was full as I sat with you
You listened as I talked and cried
The Love I felt from you
Gave me Courage to face my fears
