Lake Snowden: Driving Around

Finally! My 300th post.  It is hard to believe that when I started this blog about a year and a half ago that I would still be doing it now and that I would have had so many page views! Thanks to everyone who 'check me out' from time to time. I hope you are all enjoying my photos. I know this 300th post should have come sooner, and I hope that 2013 will bring better pictures, more exciting posts and a larger number of posts! I am so close to being healed (at least that is what I am telling myself) and when I am better I will be walking, hiking, and exploring all over taking as many photos as I can.

My only worry is that my poor little camera is getting old and I hope it is able to keep going! I have had it for 2 years and it is showing signs of wear! I have grand dreams of a fancy DSLR camera, but reality (money) is not on my side for that! Oh well! I will tell myself that it is the true sign of an artist to work with whatever materials you have to create the 'best' work!

Moving on...the photos for the blog today come from a drive that I took around Lake Snowden Park last  week.; There was a little snow on the ground, the sun was setting and the air was bright and crisp! I really love some of these pictures and hope that you do too!

Enjoy these photos and pray with me that in the weeks to come I will be healed enough to get out more in nature (I don't care if it is cold) and to start some new adventures for this new year! Love to all and thanks for your support!

(Oh and this post would have been up sooner if blogger was actually working. I tried multiple times to get my photos on and it didn't work... Okay, I finally am uploading this only because I have added all the edited photos to my phone and now can do the post via my Blogger Ap on my SIII. Not happy but at least the post is up!)

First Snow 2012

We had our first major snow this past week.  I've been wanting to go outside and take some photos, but with my foot/ankle still healing it is difficult.  However, yesterday after we got home from lunch out for my little brother's birthday lunch I decided to walk around the house and take a few pictures.  A little bit of exercise is good for me, as long as I don't do too much.  So, I walked around the house and out back by the historical society buildings to get a few pretty snow shots.  I really love them and was just pleased to be out and taking photos.  I really miss having the opportunity to do that.  I have taken some pictures in the past month of family and such; but nature photography is really my favorite thing to do.  I am fervently praying that in the next month I will be released back to work and able to start walking more and get outside.  (Not just for photography, but to go home, lose weight, etc.  It's been 6 months almost!)

Anyway, here are my photos.  I am in love with them, but I think my eye is a little skewed right now just because I was so desperate to post and take some pictures.  I hope you like them!  Enjoy!
