Majesty!

The other morning I went to one of my favorite spots just East of Monticello to watch the sunrise. I wondered if it would be much of a sunrise this morning but in the first few moments as the sun rose it was pretty spectacular! I looked up on my phone the Hymn Majesty and … Continue reading Majesty!

Not Planned Photographs!

This week I'll focus on some recent photography opportunities I've had lately... I've found in the photography hobby my favorite photographs come from moment of when I'm not going for a photo but when I open my eyes and look around me in the moment of life I'm in.

Watching the Sunrise

Early Morning Outdoors

A few mornings ago I went back down to Cut-Off Creek WMA. My main goal was to catch a certain photograph but I did not get a chance at what was in my mind. I did get some photographs which I'll share below. I also fished for a few minutes but that really did not … Continue reading Early Morning Outdoors

Sunrise

The other morning I left my house early before daylight and headed towards the delta (flat ground where much farming is done). As I drove eastward in the dark I started to see a glimpse of a faint glow in the sky...the sun was coming! I was afraid I was going to miss it but … Continue reading Sunrise

Early Mornings in the Outdoors

One thing I've tried to do more this summer in the morning before work is to go enjoy the outdoors for a little while. I try to either to go fishing or take pictures (or both). I've made a couple trips out to Lake Monticello and also Cut-Off Creek WMA (wildlife management area). I've not … Continue reading Early Mornings in the Outdoors
