  • Busy As A Bee

    Busy As A Bee

    It’s a very frustrating task to photograph a bee. No cooperation whatsoever. It buzzes from flower to flower like it’s getting paid! By the time you focus in — it’s gone. This scenario is very reminiscent of my own thoughts at times. Just as soon as I zero in, another thought elbows its way in.…

  • Judging

    Judging

    Yes. My cat does judge me. We all do it — everyday and day long. We use our judgment to decide the best course of action throughout the day. We weigh the information and facts that we have at our disposal and then act accordingly. There is a fly in the ointment, so to speak,…

  • Taking A Break

    Taking A Break

    A simple shovel crusted with the dirt of work. It patiently leans against the shed, waiting in the afternoon sun. There is still work to be done, but it’s time for a break. The break will be short. Got to finish up before the sun sets. That’s life. That’s spiritual work. I dig deep into…

  • Laundry Day

    Laundry Day

    I truly find it fascinating that visual interest can be found in every aspect of our lives. There is nothing that cannot be photogenic if given the chance. Laundry is a favorite of mine. Clean clothes smelling of your favorite fabric softener or the crisp outdoors is sensory beauty. The fresh feel of the fabric…

  • Morning Skies

    Morning Skies

    As morning creeps over the hill and the deer graze beneath morning skies, I stop on the dirt road to take this photo. Personally, early morning is my favorite light. It is light that is fresh and promising as opposed to the afternoon “golden hour”, while although stunning, is light that is spent and preparing…
