Watching Sunset
Crescent Moon Views
The night before after a day filled with happy surprises you were only a sliver – Your beauty made me gasp! I went back out in the dark, searching, but it wasn’t meant to be. But tonight, with renewed resolve and camera in hand I captured your glow.
Wildfire Sky
Too Soon?
is it the middle of summer? where long, hot days meant running through the sprinkler, jumping in the lake, sleeping with the hum of a fan OR …. Is this the doorway to autumn with back-to-school shopping, and thoughts of Halloween making you long for October?
Summer Evening
Children’s voices call out, they choose teams, set rules, begin play. Happy sounds. We watch them run, pass by on scooters, some on bikes while I water the garden with one eye on the sky.
Colorful Colorado Sky
Gentle colors grace my view color bathes my living room drawing me outdoors. The vivid shades of red and orange join together to create Mother Nature’s latest painting
Swish, Swish, Whoosh
After the Storm
Rain pounded tap, tap, tapping on the windows drops bouncing on puddles only to disappear Trees heavy with water the delicious scent of juniper and pine grass squeaky under my feet But my eyes are drawn skyward vibrant colors paint the sky
Evening Show
