On the street where I live....

We had a wonderful snow day today! The flakes were just so fat and falling so perfectly.....I had to go take a walk!

Wind River Canyon Freeze

I am lucky to live in Wyoming and right next to the Wind River Canyon were there is such diverse photo opportunities! We have had some warmer weather and that has started the snow to melt, then it freezes in these amazing frozen waterfalls! Today I saw this push seeming to grow out of the frozen waterfall and I just had to snap a few. I hope you enjoy!





Winter Frost

I love winter photography- funny thing considering I don't really like the cold! I gotta say though, nature makes the prettiest art!

Baby Birds

I was going through some pictures I took, in an effort to catch up on my digital scrapbooking, and I found these pictures I took of a nest we found while camping.




One think I like about these pictures is they show how lighting is so important! Just a different angle provided a different coloring to the picture! Something I am working on to remember.

Winter in Wyoming

I did a bit of traveling this fall/winter season! I was finally able to try my hand at some photos of the Grand Teton mountains of Jackson Hole/Yellowstone. I love the way they turned out!


I really wanted to capture the majesty of these beautiful mountains. 


I wanted to try and give the photo a warm fall feeling so I did a little editing. Which one do you like?


On the way home, the adventure continued! A mama bear and her cub brought me to a stop as they crossed the highway in front of me! I attempted to take some photos and while not as clear or focused as I would like, they are still an amazing example of why you should always have a camera on hand! You never know when you might need it!


I will say that you need to be safe when photographing wildlife. I was amazed at the few idiotic individuals who thought it would be a good idea to get OUT of thier vehicles and try to chase down these two. Going after a bear is NEVER a good idea but a MAMA BEAR is 100 times worse. Please people, use your head!!

I was able to score these amazing pictures from the window of my car!! Because it was on a highway, I wasn't able to stop for long so I do wish my photos had been better but considering the fading light, location and excitement- I will always treasure these!


I took some photos of the hoar frost the other morning but my computer that has my editing software has died due to the charger suddenly fried. I will hopefully get back to business next week.

Hope you have a good year!
