Eighty-Third Collection

Sometimes you MUST take a shot. We were travelling on a back street in Bonner’s Ferry, Idaho, when this tower caught my eye. My husband had to make a U-turn for me to get the shot. Even then, I walked around for a bit trying to find the best angle so the clouds were cuddling the structure and everything was naturally framed.

Embarking on a self portrait journey.

This is the view of Sedona, AZ, USA from the airport lookout. I think it puts things into perspective nicely.

For me, this window display accurately portrayed the word “melting” from the summer beachware & potted palms to the hot reflections.

The old center of Dordrecht is beautiful with it’s canals.

Poppies have the most interesting details and texture.

Carlos Sand Blow. One of the most spectacular places to visit

“Standing Strong Through Adversity”
This shot was taken at the Croton Dam Spillway in New York after heavy rains. I admired the tree surviving in that spot when it must be subject to water flowing around it whenever storms occur.

No kidding. Somebody took the time to fashion a plane with a skeleton pilot with a wolf man stuck in the propeller. Gotta love roadside art. Northern Utah.

A morning stroll on the beach. A bit cold but still nice.

Looking up and appreciating just how old and how high the trees are.

In the midst of all the shadows in the rainforest a ray of light lit up this fern and cast a shadow on the side of the tree.

During my morning walk I saw this sweet cat sitting on a pole with barbed wire.

So many hidden treasures in a rainforest This fungi was one

Tunnel Beach, Oregon, USA.

Beautiful day at Rainbow Beach

Encountered this woman alone on the beach on a late afternoon.

Whilst taking photos on the beach i suddenly have a feeling I was being watched. Turned around and looked up. They thought it was very funny when I started taking photos of them. We waved at each other and I kept walking down the beach. Great start to the day

In the Fortuny showroom in Giudecca (Venice) nothing is less than wonderful. From the location, to the furnishings. And even the staircase between the ground floor and the first floor is a masterpiece.

My heart gets so happy when I see these kinds of clouds developing in the morning on the salt water with these beautiful reflections buried like a taste of heaven.

The sun, sand and water in Punta Cana on this beautiful day was all the bliss I hoped for!

As the sun set on a beach in Galveston, Texas, the sky looked like it was on fire. This photo did a good job of capturing a moment of the quickly changing colors!

A tiny ladybug provides perspective on a giant sunflower which grows in a vast field of sunflowers at Bragg Farms, Bowmanville, Ontario.

Holy glow

Sometimes you’re walking somewhere and than your attention is drawn to a subject or special moment.

The sun shining behind the church tower was one of those moments of which I knew I had to take the capture right now.
