I Just Want To See Your Face

There's nothing like seeing a field of sunflowers to make you think "Halloween".  I wonder if there's a maze in there!

Over The Hills And Far Away

It's the Halloween season and the beginning of all my favorite holidays of the year!  

Good seasons start with good beginnings.

Caught Up in the Rapture

Talk about having a "field day", this little one was ready, willing, and able!  

Miracles come in moments. Be ready and willing.

Isn't Life Strange

There were so many of these.  I thought they were so interesting, and, well......... INTERESTING!

Thinking is more interesting than knowing, but less interesting than looking.

Unnatural Habitat

So far, these are the only photographs I've made of cows.  I thought this one's face was very interesting.
Cows are amongst the gentlest of breathing creatures; none show more passionate tenderness to their young when deprived of them; and, in short, I am not ashamed to profess a deep love for these quiet creatures.
Thomas de Quincey

Nearer My God to Thee

This church is across the street from the UCLA campus.  I thought the spires on their steeple were beautiful.  The textures were smooth and reminded me of when I used to go to the creek in Colorado and play with the sandstone in the river.


Aim at heaven and you will get earth thrown in. Aim at earth and you get neither.

In My Younger Days

Most of the women I know just LOVE their high heeled shoes. Many become obsessive shopping for the next great pair!

High heels were invented by a woman who had been kissed on the forehead.
