Big Bend National Park

Here is another photograph taken at Big Bend National Park.  We were half way up the moutain, and the views alone were great... but add the changing colors of the fall leaves... spectacular.  November 2009

White Sands

White Sands National Monument has stunning pure-white sand dunes!  Take a look at the back sand dune... you can see someone's footprints embedded in the sand.  I recommend everyone visit this place... you won't see anything like it anywhere else in the United States.  March 2010

Castle

Romania isn’t known as a touristy destination, however when my husband and I travel there, we find it to be beautiful.  And just like Romania, Bran Castle, also known as Dracula’s Castle, has some beautiful areas.  This is one of them.  August 2010

Rock Tower

I didn’t put this rock tower together, but I want to thank whoever did.  What a powerful looking photo.  July 2010

Raindrops on Flowers

This picture was taken on a trip to San Francisco.  We were riding our bikes through the city (by the way, those San Fran hills are treacherous) when it started raining.  The storm left these purple flowers looking beautiful.  November 2010

Downtown Houston

The Houston skyline is something I used to fall asleep to and wake up to everyday.  I couldn’t wait to see the reflection of the sunset on the downtown buildings.  July 2010

The Promise of Love

My husband and I received the ”Promise” Willow Tree sculpture for our one year anniversary.  I placed it on our hammered copper table and made sure to get our blue painted wall in the background.  The colors contrast nicely.  “Hold dear the promise of love.”  July 2010

Butterfly on Flower

This is one of my favorite snapshot from my butterfly collection.  If you look closely you can see a moth that snuck in the picture.  He placed himself right in the middle of the purple flower.  November 2009

Big Bend Sunset

My husband and I decided to take a road trip, a rather long road trip, to Big Bend National Park.  We drove from Houston to the other side of Texas to tackle the 6 mile hike uphill to the “South Rim”.  It took several hours, but the view was well worth it… I was able to capture a moment where my husband was watching the sun set over the Rio Grande.  November 2009

The Beginning

This is the picture that started it all… July 2009… Zihuatanejo, Mexico.  My husband and I were on our honeymoon when I saw “El Hombre” as I call him.  He was walking on the beach with his musical instrument, and he just stopped right in front of me… perfect shot, I thought… I grabbed my camera, and this is what came of it… so begins this little project of mine…
