Today has been monumental in holding on to creating what my soul cries out to create – drawing upon my passion to being the author of my life.

For a little while I’ve laid down my ‘word document’ (modern contemporary version of ‘the pen’) regarding my screenplay, The Last Rose of Summer. Today, my inner landscape is leaping with anticipation to return writing my screenplay. I’m so glad because I’ve been frustrated not writing everyday. There are so many exciting writing ideas I [...]

Storefronts Windows

Filed Under Landscape, Nature, Online Marketing | Leave a Comment

Yesterday I began photographing businesses that participate in the A.W.E. project – Artist Window Exhibit. It’s been happening since 3 years. I thought having images of the storefronts that participate will be helpful to the artists as they choose which stores their artwork will be displayed. Some artists are not from here and these images show which stores [...]

I think around 10 inches.  During the beginning of a snow storm I enjoy taking a ride in my car.  I get this feeling of – survival mode, being in my auto-bubble as I ride along the street packed with snow. My little humble Chevy [...]

Woman with Plants – Your Thoughts…

Today has been a long day and I thought before I retire I wanted to share this photo I took a few years ago. A neighbor of mine had a small greenhouse in the back of her home. She wanted to show me her beautiful plants. I followed her as she walked to the back [...]

Still hoping to photograph the amazing diamonds hanging from the branches that I saw last week. It’s been quite warm recently, but I heard snow is coming on Sunday. Perhaps that maybe another opportunity to photograph the jewels again. Tomorrow I have another photo shoot of the mayoral candidate. I’m looking forward to creating interesting [...]

A candidate for public office where I live asked me to take several photographs for a brochure that’s being printed soon. Tonight has been chosen because there will be a group of people gathered with the candidate. I was told group shots were needed as well as a portrait of him with his family. I’m [...]
