Whenever I loose faith in humankind
I turn to my Mother
who always knows what is best for me
as She and only She
leads me down the Golden Path of Peace.

[Photography taken with my Canon 50D]
Friends, I went to a park called Chestnut Ridge Park yesterday and stepped into a world that had my Heart in my throat. The Beauty that surrounded me in every direction had me spell bound! I will be returning to this park today, for there is just SO much Magic still waiting there for me to capture. If I do not respond to your comment today, you now know why. All I can say is, all of you are in for a real treat for what is to come here at Petals.
And yes, there is a HUGE difference between my Canon compared to both of my Samsung cameras. I am only carrying the body with one lens with me, and leaving behind at home the tripod and other lenses and equipment. I have a steady eye and steady hands … that is all I need to take gorgeous images. Please ENJOY!!!

That’s truly a beautiful shot Amy! OK! Come clean! Who did you buy it from? LOL! It does make me feel peaceful too! I’m very sleepy… (YAWN!!) I intend to hibernate this winter. First, I’m gonna eat a lot of blubber. Then, pray to The Lard I wake up thin! I HATE winter! Too white! Soon we approach Halloween (cellebration of the dead). This year, I think I’ll go wander the beautiful woods as a stinking corpse… Sound convincing? WHOOOOHAAAA! WHOOOOHAAAA! WHOOOOHAAAA!

I actually didn’t buy it from anyone, Darrell. I took it from my camera’s card. Yep, true. Sure glad you felt the Peace because I certainly did. I am not too fond of winter either but I am determined this year I will fall in LOVE with it. I am buying snow shoes just so that I get out in Nature to shoot beautiful shots. Leave it to me to at least find contrast with all that white. I know what you mean about the white. A few times towards the end of winter I feel like screaming with all that white and NO color. I don’t celebrate Halloween anymore. I know. I’m a party pooper. Oh well! YOU get all scary for me. OK? Hugs and kisses, Amy ❤

Totally agree; there is nothing more spectacular than feeling the crisp fall air against your face, breathing in the gorgeous fall color, and hearing the crunch of the leaves under your feet as you walk through the park.

I saw a man yesterday with his tripod and camera. Just carrying my Canon was more then enough, walking for 3 hours. By the time I got home I was ready for the couch and not moving. Due to stress in my Life of late, my legs have really been aching. That was addressed last evening with acupressure. Hopefully today my legs will feel better. Have a great day, YellowCable!!!
