Beyond The Known
This week! My posts have been brief for a reason. We lost our electric for 5 hours on Sunday due to an extremely bad wind and lightning storm. Poor Rusty who was sleeping on my bed, careened sky high when thunder clapped directly overhead. In midair he pooped he was that terrified. Never have I … Continue reading Friday Wrap Up
It being Wednesday and all, this post will be brief. Mid-week. Almost Friday. Hump day. Let’s celebrate this day with pictures of ice which I played with in the editing rooms. I do believe you will come away from this post with a new respect for ice. (smile) Angels’ Wings Rods and Dollops … Continue reading Wednesday’s Ice
Let’s start this week on the lighter side of life, shall we? To do this we have to revisit last September to help us. So, let’s do this! Hmmmm ….. what the … ? Dance. Oh yeah! Sing. Join me! Spread those wings! Drooling with infatuation over you. May this … Continue reading Monday’s Smiles
Zippity-do-da! Snow! Perhaps just a little, but this was my chance to at least attempt to bring some snowscapes to you. But where to go, I asked? Hmmmm ….. I thought some and then I knew. It was cold the day I went out with my cameras. Very. So with care I dressed ensuring I … Continue reading YES!
Winter this year is not cooperating so far as in giving me beautiful white landscapes. With barely any snow on the ground at all, I’ve had to be very creative when out in the field. I went to Reinstein Park recently and saw another photographer shooting by the bird feeders. I had nothing to lose, … Continue reading Heart’s Passion

Can you believe that 2019 is almost over? Where did the year go? I don’t know about you, but it seemed to have passed as if in a blur. Now here we are, about to go into a brand new decade. 2020! That to me sounds futuristic, as if suddenly I find myself catapulted into … Continue reading Happy New Year 2020
Wishing from this Miracle of a home, a Merry Christmas to you and your Loved Ones. May all of you experience the Wonder of Miracles and Love in a very special way. I will not be blogging. I am spending precious time with my family. Comments also will be closed. This Christmas is probably the … Continue reading Merry Christmas
What did the woodpecker say to the tree? “Thank you for giving me a wee bit of your life force cuz I’m free- zing as I hug you to me!” ~~~ Yes, it has been cold here. The day I took a picture of this Flicker Woodpecker though our dining room window, he actually looked … Continue reading Nature Speaks
BEFORE AFTER In the darkroom, I felt my stress melt away. Not sure how much longer I could sit with my knees so sore from working legs at the gym, I hung in there. Don’t ask me what I pushed or what I did cuz I couldn’t tell you. I played until I … Continue reading Before And After
Fizzle. Fazzle. Peter out. The big bad snow storm never happened. Warnings were all over the place …. beware! This is a BIG one. I saw some flakes, and kept saying, “Is that all?” So those really cool snow storm pictures I told you I would be taking, are non-existent. Thank you weather forecasters for another brilliant failure. … Continue reading Brilliance With Failure
I normally do not show three pictures of the same bird, but there are always exceptions especially when it comes to a bird I’ve been trying to capture for years. A gorgeous male Pileated Woodpecker was spotted almost immediately when I entered the park. Could it really be this easy when I’ve been “hunting” for … Continue reading Gotcha!
Years I complained. Years worth. How I dreaded each Autumn when the leaves would fall so that once again I could see the “junk” that has again collected right next to our property line. This year however, I stopped resisting, accepting what is for what is. The view from my kitchen window went from a … Continue reading Sunday Stillness
For the longest time, a Cooper’s Hawk sat on our tree that is closest to our house. I took pictures of him though our window. I know he knew I was there, yet he patiently allowed me to capture him. What a gorgeous bird of prey! On that very same day, I managed a bit … Continue reading Hawk, Ice, And News
Do your best when you get bothered to be as a duck water flowing off your back so as not to be bothered at all. ~~~~~ When you are broken and a mess there still is great beauty within that chaotic mess that selectively draws order. ~~~~ In the stillness of the moment … Continue reading Sunday’s Shares
I laughed so hard I had tears in my eyes. While at the gym, a young man asked me if I was using the shoulder shrug free-weight machine that I was standing near. He was not joking. I pointed at this machine which had 140 pounds [63.5 kg] of weight on it and asked, “You … Continue reading This, That, And The Other
All of life is Sacred yes all! … … as it ebbs and flows within the highs and lows in the receiving and the giving in the crying and the laughing for it is when we fly high we rejoice to be alive and when we fall low it is there … Continue reading Sacred
To know what love is what love isn’t has to be experienced first and then and only then real love becomes known to the heart. ~~~~ I get super nervous photographing people as I feel it is an invasion of privacy. If I do take human pictures it mostly is from the back or in … Continue reading To Know
Just the other day I decided to go to Chestnut Ridge Park, camera in tow, with hope I’d hit the peak Fall colors. I wasn’t in tiptop form that day, yet I insisted on going. Deciding to leave my fanny pack with my water bottle in the car, and only carrying one camera body, I … Continue reading Creating Possible
In leaning in close to encourage another it’s as though Heaven itself conjoins with Earth. ~~~~ Every other year since I have been blogging, I would literally run after the colors seen in Fall. Hundreds if not thousands of pictures have been taken in past years. There is something about Fall that is so … Continue reading Encouragement
If our brain is a part of who we are inclusive of our thoughts, then “who” is the awareness, the invisible voice, who not only interprets our thoughts but discusses them with us as well? Hmmmmm … About this image — This is the first landscape image you have seen taken with my Canon EOS … Continue reading Thoughts Of A Thinker
With camera in hand, I went to Reintstein Park. To my astounded eyes, the colors that are showing now, are some of the brightest I think I’ve ever seen! I think from all the rain we had this year, this year’s Exhibition of Color is going to be phenomenal. As it is, what I found … Continue reading A Walk In The Park
If you don’t know French, the title says, “Gardens are finished!”. Finally! OH. MY. HEAVENS! Finally! The final tally is in! I used a total of 90 pounds (40.8 kg.) of fertilizer. I am so proud of myself for accomplishing what I did do combined with my everyday schedule that comprises my life. There were … Continue reading Les Jardins Sont Finis!
Friends, I am getting there. I’ve gone through 72 pounds (32.66 kg) of fertilizer so far. To give you an idea of what I’ve done, I followed the “per plant” directions which state for each established plant, work 1 cup of fertilizer into soil around drip line. To go one step further, I weighed that … Continue reading Getting There!
