Snow Level, Leaves and Spider.

I took this photo yesterday morning. I'm showing you how far the snow level dropped over night...
Leaves

That there is a spider and the object tightly woven next to him was a fly until the spider, well kind of got him. I watched the spider as it spun the fly in it's thread. It was very interesting to watch.

Edmund Burke:

"Truth resides in every human heart, and one has to search for it there, and to be guided by truth as one sees it. But no one has a right to coerce others to act according to his own view of truth".

Here is the stack of omnibus books I'm reading this school year.
I lit a candle and was just playing around taking shots. I edited this one quite a bit. What do you think?

God is so powerful. He really is amazing beyond belief. God loves us all so much, it feels wonderful to be loved. This week I've been really busy with schoolwork and I just keep thanking God for such an opportunity to be busy with all of this geat curriculmn I'm using. It really is a blessing no matter how frustrated and overwhelmed I feel, I continue on thanking him. If you are feeling sad, frustrated, tired, clueless or even happy pray to God and he will lift your spirts. He is wonderful and I'm just so thankful with my life right now. I truely feel blessed.
May God Bless You All Too.

Always Do Your Best, and Your Dreams Will Come True

Always Do Your Best, and Your Dreams Will Come True
by Collin McCarty

It's not always easy to know
which path to follow,
which decision to make,
or what to do.

Life is a series of new horizons,
new hopes, new days, and changes
that come to you.
And we will need some help with these things
from time to time.

Remember these things: Dream it. Do it.
And discover how special you are
Be Positive, for your attitude
will affect the outcome of many things
Ask for help when you need it;
seek the wisdom the world holds
and hold on to it.
Make some progress every single day
Begin. Believe. And become

Give yourself all the credit you're due
don't shortchange your qualities, your abilities,
or any of the things that are unique about you
Remember how precious life can be.
Imagine. Invest the time it takes
to reach out for your dreams;
it will bring you happiness that no
money on earth can buy.
Don't be afraid; no mountain is to big to climb
if you do it at your own pace.

What's the best thing to do?
That's simple:
Do your best
And everything else will fall into place


Life Without Friendship

~~Life Without Friendship~~

Life without friendship....
is like the dawn without the sun.

Life without friendship....
is like the sky without the moon
when the evening has begun.

Life without friendship....
is like a rose without rain.

Life without friendship....
just wouldn't be the same.

Life without friendship....
is like a ship without a sea.

Life without friendship....
just could not be without a friend like you for me.

Be Thankful

Be Thankful

Be thankful that you don't already have everything you desire.
If you did, what would there be to look forward to?
Be thankful when you don't know everything,
for it gives you the opportunity to learn.
Be thankful for the difficult times.
During those times you grow.
Be thankful for your limitations,
because they give you opportunities for improvement.
Be thankful for each new challenge
because it will build your strength and character.
Be thankful for your mistakes.
They will teach you valuable lessons.
Be thankful when you're tired and weary,
because it means you've made a difference.

Hummingbirds




I know a few months ago I basically had hummingbird fever. I managed to get hundreds of shots and here are three that I don't think I've added, but please correct me if I'm wrong.
Hummingbirds are my very favorite type of bird!

My Sister, Samantha


Samantha on Halloween. (She was supposedly a hippie?) Note: that is defiantly not her real hair, in case you were wondering.

This is a little something for you Samantha, I truly do love you, even though I may not always show it.

My sister, Samantha, has a twinkling personality. She goes to bed each evening with a smile on her face and when she awakes in the morning, she still has that glistening expression. Because of this, she makes my day. Samantha is almost always joyful and is dear to my heart. Sparkling like the evening stars is like my sister’s personality. I’m proud to call her my sister!

Grass

Cedar Tree




Here are a few more with water droplets, this time a cedar tree.

Dill and Maple Leaves.

Dill
Maple Leaves

One of my very favorite things to do right after a huge rain storm is to go outside and photograph all the grass, leaves, plants etc... I love all the water droplets on everything around me.
I really like the drop of water on this particular one. If I would of waited a few more seconds, the water probably would of dissipated.

More Vibrant Fall Colors and a Pumpkin.

My sister, Casidy carved this pumpkin. I thought it was a clever idea to use the stem as the nose.
Japanese maple leaves. The second one I edited quite a bit. You can really change a picture, it is amazing.


Dogwood leaves

Cumulus Clouds.






The sun was trying really hard to shine through these cumulus clouds. I like how the outer part of the cloud is really bright. Finally the sun poked through. They are not the best shots however. These were taken with my panasonic lumix camera. If the canon battery was charged I can almost guarantee that these photos would of turned out a lot better. To me these look a bit grainy.

One More


I really like this one.

Maple Leaves.






All of these fall colors are so beautiful! I just wanted to show the orange to you. (I didn't edit these photos in any way)
