This Is What Happens When...

... the grand baby gets a hold of the camera...

There were about 40 more of these gems on my memory card.  Some too dark to see anything, most all blurry, most containing a finger or two in the shot.  These are just the ones I chose to share with you.


And THIS is what happens when you take the camera away:

Picture October

For the month of October I am challenging myself to post a picture each day.  A snapshot of life as I know it... my reality. 

If this goes well, I plan to continue the picture a day as my "30 Days of Gratitude" series for this November.  Each day posting a picture of something for which I am thankful.

As Lovely As A Tree

I love trees in Winter.  "Naked Trees" I call them.  There is something about the beauty of the form.  Bare of leaves and visible.  It's like lace.  Like architecture.  As much as I love the Autumn (it is still my favorite season), I can't help but look forward to the leaves falling and revealing the natural beauty of the tree's structure which has been hidden beneath them all summer. 

I prefer winter and fall, when you feel the bone structure of the landscape - the loneliness of it, the dead feeling of winter. Something waits beneath it, the whole story doesn't show. ~Andrew Wyeth
