While staying at the Home of Peace historic bed-and-breakfast in Oakland, California (established 1893), I walked to the car to load my suitcase and saw this magnificent cloudscape over Beaulah Chapel across the parking lot, where my dear Mother’s memorial service was held six months prior.

Fortunately, I had my camera handy and took several pictures of this memorable moment before the clouds dissipated.

This is my favorite one.

It had been raining steady, as if the Creator of the universe was gently shedding His tears from heaven, as He understands the grief of my heart missing Mom.

Then, a break in the clouds the day after Mom’s first birthday in heaven to get this photo.

The Heavenly Father sent His majestic love note at just the right time to bring comfort and reassurance.

“God, please tell Mom, ‘I love you.’”

This very neatly coiled rope on a dock caught my eye as a graphic image worth recording.

A minimal art photo of the remains of a boat dock at Whitefish Point in Michigan along Lake Superior. This area is known as the Graveyard of Ships. I love how the gulls are gathered on one end of the dock remains.

A lucky number.

The Beach Life.



The Beach Life And Text.

I can't believe it's June already ! I found a forgotten photograph on one of my hard drives from a trip to Key West a few years ago that I liked, so I processed it today in an HDR program and then added some digital painterly-style effects and a subtle texture.

Jelke Creek Bird Sanctuary is a protected wildlife area in Sleepy Hollow, Illinois, USA. I went out to capture the Dame's Rockets in bloom along the forest floor, but there was so much more out there I couldn't stop shooting. I am so at peace when in this place because it has very little human activity and is teeming with flora and fauna. I hope my photos reflect that.

Having some fun with raindrops.

On a spring evening as the sun sets over the city of St. Louis, Missouri the Arch rises above the city to catch the final rays of the setting sun. The Arch in the evening can provide spectacular viewing opportunities for visitors. The Gateway Arch is 630 foot tall, clad in stainless steel, and is the worlds tallest arch.

Spring foliage abounds in this remote location near Eminence, Missouri. This old and abandoned Klepzig Mill sits beside a rocky creek and was used as a saw mill in the early history of the area. Klepzig Mill was built in 1928 by Walter Klepzig and produced planks for building material which replaced log construction.

My stormy scenes of Southern Arizona at the onset of monsoon season would make fantastic wall hangings, perfect for any desert lover or interior designer looking to wow a client.
