Life in Black & White

I love writing. I love photography. I have to have both. My photos give life to my writing and vice versa. Without these two, I don’t think I would be who I am. Something would be missing. Not too long ago, someone…a very dear friend, told me to quit listening to music or reading things…

Masked Blooms

This month has been warmer than usual which resulted in unexpected and yet beautiful blooms all around. Pretty unusual this time of year. Could it be a sign of what summer is going to be like? Masked blooms. Too early for spring and pretty dangerous for the winter. It may be too early for the…

Deceiving Beauty

It’s been quite a busy past weeks. I miss sharing photos with you all and miss sharing my thoughts. But life, as its always been – has a way of distracting us. Work, family matters and the many other things that we allow to take away our ability to enjoy life and take things slowly….

Anachronisms

Have you heard of the word anachronism? It’s a Greek word meaning, against time. I am not an expert or much less a professional when it comes to photography. I love what I do. It gives me joy to be able to capture something and be able to relay a feeling whether it be nostalgia,…

Camouflage

We had our first snow last Friday night into Saturday morning. I love snow. It is so pretty to look at. But…if it’s mixed with ice and you get snowed in for days…that’s a different story. Despite the freezing temperature and the lack of a stronger lens, I ventured out and decided to create some…

Beauty in the Horizon

I will never get tired of capturing sunsets in film. To me no sunset is alike. Everyday, it boasts of its captivating beauty and power, one different from the other. If you will remember, I blogged of the same picture on the same spot. This time, I am sharing a high-resolution shot using my professional…

Weeds of Hope

Weeds: A valueless plant growing wild; any undesirable or troublesome plant. I don’t know about you, but…some weeds have a way of getting my attention. Not because they are troublesome or something of no value. To me, they are just not weeds. I see wishes. I see smiles. I see small hands and curious eyes….

Moonlight Serenade

I took this photo one cold night right on our porch with a blanket wrapped around me. This is a time where I wish I lived in the city, with some cool backdrop around or behind the moon. I still have a lot to learn and I will. Do you see that face on the…
