  • Stopping for a bit of lavender pollen this honey seems to be enjoying the warm weather.
  • Lobby of the West Baden Hotel in West Baden Indiana. Love the old feel here. The soft light, this was the largest domed structure from 1902 until the Astrodome was built. Very interesting history and fantastic light!
  • A Huge thank you to all those Veterans out there! You have been there always to protect America and what it stands for. Thank you to your family's as well for they are what keep you going!
  • My newest orchid popped out today..I thought it would be another yellow but it is this lovely purple speckle..Rainy again here in Portland, I'm sure summer will be here eventually!
  • At Cannon Beach low tide at Haystack rock left lots of tidepools open for exploration. This beautifully colored anemone with his teal and peacock blue was striking against the babies behind.
  • "Lady"<br /> Walking on Cannon Beach this weekend I came upon this Lady sitting on a muscle in the sand.<br /> The little splash of orange against the sand was quite eye catching!<br /> Hope all the moms had a fantastic Mother's Day!
  • "Choices"<br /> Well here it is Mother's day weekend and I was trying to decide where we should go...I thought I would check with the "choices" cupboard<br /> to help make my decision...<br /> Happy Mom's day to all those hard working moms out there...
  • "Yellowstone design"<br /> More of the Art in Yellowstone series, demonstrating the outstanding art nature provides for us every day!<br /> This is the mineral deposits from the geysers.<br /> In metallic this photo is so beautiful with the different layers...
  • Love this artistic front end of an old Mercesdes, from my ""Art in Horsepower" series..Getting ready for a review/show...kind of harried right now! Ok Pulling hair out more like it!<br /> Wish me luck!
  • Water in motion series I'm working on...<br /> There's just somethig special about water..thank you for all the nice comments yesterday...just wish it wasn't quite so cold in Yellowstone...

  • Mt Hood on a clear spring day in April, 2012. appx 11, 250 feet in altitude it has 11 glaciers and is a favorite for mountain climbers. They are expecting another 50 inches of snow up there as well as 50 mph winds..however, you can ski year round from Timberline Lodge!
  • Looking more like abstract art this tree tells its life story of floods, snow, termites..what can you see?
  • Love the happiness of Nolan's face while on the swing!<br /> He kept saying, "Higher, Higher, Higher" just as any 3 year old would..<br /> If we could only hold that childish gleefulness close to us for the rest of our lives?
  • Another cool and rainy day here..Robins out looking for worms..I'm just waiting for the sun to shine!
  • These beautiful irises look pretty as a picture..
  • From the southbound lanes of the 5 the La Jolla Mormon Temple looks like a spaceship ready to launch..It is really a beautiful building.
  • Colton is 5 days old here and already he looks as if he is plotting to take over the world..<br /> First a snack and a nap I think!
  • Snowy day in spring..looks just like a Christmas card
  • Just hours old, Colton Chester holds onto his big brother Myles finger in hospital.

    Wonderful shot; looks like Grand Prismatic Spring, although on the day we were there, the colors looks quite different...amazing how different the light can make things look.
