This week’s Scavenger Hunt items pretty much fit perfectly with the pictures I have taken this week. I mean the first prompt is “portrait”, how more perfect could it get? But it does, because then another prompt is “full of light”. Portraits {I’m sorry, I couldn’t pick just one favorite! I LOVE my new lens!!!!!} […]

In other words, fall is almost over and winter is just starting 🙂The other day I happened to look out the window and notice that the light was at the perfect golden hour light. Most of our leaves are gone, so I wanted to capture some pictures with the gorgeous light and some to-die-for bokeh. […]

Can you guess what trick nature played on us today? That’s right, it SNOWED! In October! Maybe that’s not a big deal to all you Northern folk, but here in Southern PA it doesn’t snow until December, occasionally in Nov. But NEVER in October. In fact the last time in snowed here in October was […]
