A boy and his dog. :)

I've never seen a dog that loves snow so much! It's hilarious. I suppose could take a lesson from him! And a couple more from earlier.... I sure wish I would have gotten some right after Cameron found him. I'm not sure  who was happier, Cameron with the puppy or the puppy with all the attention. :)

I wanted to post a few from Durrel and Lori's session. We had fun even though it was cold and Lori had to rescue me from my soaking wet feet! I discovered my boots were most certainly not for practical purposes. :D

Thank you guys for trusting me with this important event! Many happy days as you prepare for the big day and the beginning of the rest of your life together! :)

Two favorites from this week!

Just some shots from today- braving the cold. I hope to regain feeling in my toes! :-D It's the first time I was successful capturing snowflakes! So fragile looking and beautiful. The tiny specks are from the metallic paint on the truck.

I think need to focus more on the beauty of winter and  little less on the cold and wind. :)

Who knew that getting macro shots of water drops in poor light could be so hard? I will not say how much of my time it consumed this afternoon. (But hey, I forgot about this horrid stomach bug for a while!)

Upside down reflections of the Christmas tree! :)

Day 30

And here is yesterday's post. Sorry, it's a bit more than one photo again! I took off with my camera towards evening, not sure that I would find much of anything in the dead and snowy landscape. I was uninspired and planned to 'just shoot something' from the warmth and dryness of the van. But I did find something, tucked away in the corner of a parking lot, and I felt like God had it there just for me. Such gorgeous colors! Winter may be coming- but it will go again! I know, bad place to live if you don't like Winter. But Steve lives here. :)

 I really wanted to just lay on the ground under the tree and soak it up till it disappeared! But my coat would have done plenty of soaking up too...

I kept walking...

And finished off with this! Walking around in the cold and snow in flip-flops made it necessary. :)

Day 29

A photo with clouds. No big puffy clouds or even wispy scattered clouds. And not because it was a beautiful cloudless Fall day. No, it wasn't that at all.

I got to see this huge thing bite the dust. :) The train came along and stopped and sat there till the ruckus was over, then blew it's whistle and chugged along.

Well, tomorrow is the last day and it is again, a photo of whatever I please. What do I please?  Someone please shout out a suggestion!!
