Early Light Over Lake Aspen

Started my election day morning with this balcony shot of the sunrise over fireworks point on Lake Aspen.

The Morning After

I took this shot this morning on our way to church. It's a sunny morning on the road from the condos to the front gate of Innsbrook. What a difference from the dreary day before.

So much for Spring!

Took this shot less than an hour ago, It’s March 26th, and the forecast is for continuing snow through the evening; current temperature: 31° F., and falling.

Evening Sky on Fire

This is a specular sight I snapped from our carport one evening this past winter.

Welcome to my gallery

Thanks for visiting my photographic gallery. Now that I'm fully retired, and living in a beautiful area of the Missouri River Valley, I'm spending more time focusing on the natural beauty around me wherever I go. My purpose in this blog is to show family and friends some of the beautiful sights Mary Ann and I have seen in the community where we live and in places that we've visited during the past few years.

Many of my earlier shots were taken with a number of "point-and-shoot" cameras, among them the Canon Sure Shot 35mm; those taken since early December, 2008, have been taken with a Casio EX-Z9 Exilim digital camera. (I'm still studying the user's guide for this one.)

Now that I've joined the Innsbrook Photo Club, I expect to learn much about photography and post-processing so that the quality of my work will improve greatly in the months and years to come. Perhaps they can teach an old dog new tricks.

By the way, if you wish to enlarge any photo, just click once on it.
