Don't you ever wonder what old buildings looked like when they were brand new?

Going Up?

The night sky is captivating: constellations, nebulae, galaxies, meteor showers, auroras. My favorite time to view the heavens is in winter because the sky is so crystal clear.

Aurora Borealis

Orion and the Winter Triangle . . . see it?

Venus and the Moon

Water

Water is one of the most powerful forces on earth when enough energy is added to it. Tsunamis can make entire cities and even islands disappear. Water scoured the earth clean and reshaped the surface of our planet during the Great Flood of Noah's time. At other times, it gently cradles a fallen blossom or reflects the beauty of the sky above. Water is a beautiful and vital part of Creation.

Families in Sepia

Originally a dark brown ink obtained from the Sepia cuttlefish, sepia became a photographic process used in the early days of photography because of the longevity it imparted to the images. That's why so many of the old photographs still around are sepia toned; they simply outlasted the standard black and white photographs. These days, a mouse click gives digital photos a similar effect.

Little Ones

They may be the least cooperative photographic subjects, but crying or giggling, babies and toddlers make great portraits.
