If there is one thing that I am thankful, it’s my ability to see something and then capture it on camera. To me, photography is not just having a camera in hand and having the capability to point and shoot. There is more to photography than meets the eye. It is seeing something that is…

The Outerbanks
I have been here in North Carolina for sixteen years and it took me that many years before I could visit the Outerbanks and see the famous lighthouses of North Carolina. And I can tell you that it never disappoint. We left home at around one thirty in the morning to catch the first ferry…
Joy Bringers
Life consists of many simple and ordinary things. And I find joy in them… As I was getting ready yesterday to help out with our church Barbeque Fundraiser, I glanced at my shoes and somehow the combinations of the shoe color and my leggings brought me joy. Perhaps it’s also the realization that this cleaning…
Hummingbird
Several weeks ago, I waited outside in the cold to capture this tiny and yet beautiful creature. For almost an hour, I played catch with him. For some reason, he seems to know when I am distracted with something else and not looking. What else is there for me to do, but….to play along. Allow…
May Flowers
Can you believe it’s May already?!? I was able to explore a new place yesterday and I am so happy for the chance to do that. Very much needed. Being able to photograph nature always has that “feel good” effect on me. Here are just some of the photos I took yesterday. Hope you enjoy!…
Wintry Air
Above is just one of the many winter photos I collected for the past two years. I know it’s been a while since my last post. I am having a difficult time right now expressing my emotions. I do have a lot to share and tell but not finding the right words and emotions to…

“Do you think the universe fights for souls to be together? Some things are too strange and strong to be coincidences.” Emery Allen A fortunate happenstance or a pleasant surprise? Have you seen the movie Serendipity? It’s one of my favorite movies and I can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen it and it…
Peculiar
A human being is a single being. Unique and unrepeatable. Eileen Caddy Isn’t it strange that I find this halfway bloom beautiful? I have shots of the same Azalea plant with flowers in full bloom and yet this one caught my eye. Have you ever considered yourself peculiar at times? I’d like to use…
Rare Weeds
I don’t know what is it with dandelions, they have a way of getting into me. It’s like each one of them stand out on their own. It is considered a weed, but it commands attention. Maybe, I’m just an easy to please person….I don’t know. How can a tiny stem like that hold such…
Tangled Beauty
How can someone or something that is tangled up…be beautiful? In short, is there such a thing as beautifully confused or beautifully complicated and chaotic? I’m sure if we were to ask people, most will probably describe beauty as something more predictive and orderly. Someone or something who’s in charge or know what they are…
