I have enjoyed nature and it's beauty for as long as I can remember. Photographing it to share is a new hobby. I still have much to learn. Any helpful hints and constructive criticism is always welcome.


I will try to post new items weekly so check back. It is my pleasure to share nature's gifts with you. I find myself amazed at some of the beauty I find while out for a walk.

Winter Beauty


We are into the second month of winter. Are you getting tired of the cold and snow yet?

During the snows that pass through, there is nothing more beautiful than seeing a bright red, male cardinal in a snow covered branch. I captured this guy in my yard as he headed to the feeders for food. He is one of my favorite birds. Tough bird to catch in the open and sitting still to get a picture. You can always tell when they are near as they are always making noise. I look forward to spring to hear him singing "what cheer" to everyone.
