Do You Print Your Work?
Making prints more consistently of my photography is a goal of mine this year. I use to do this all the time but when my Canon Pro printer died on me a couple of years ago, and I didn’t have the funds to replace it for awhile, I got out of the habit. The convenience factor of being able to…

#Unfolio – Final Thoughts
I started this project with a little defiance driving it. I can’t be the only one that is tired of the noise online about what one should and should not do with their online presence. People have created empires telling people what to do. Then we have the algorithms dictating our every move. If you don’t serve it what it…

#Unfolio – Week 3
I’m currently in a posting theme for March (concentrated on IG, but sharing some here, too) called #Unfolio. It’s the end of week three and it has been a very interesting exercise. On one side I have thoroughly enjoyed sharing these images and the why I took them without comparing them with what I consider my portfolio work. It’s felt…

#Unfolio – Week 2
Week two of #unfolio is going strong and I finally shared an image I’ve been sitting on since last May, the woman painting in the botanic gardens.

#Unfolio – Week 1

The exercise in having a theme for the month was very enjoyable. I found it calming to know what I was going to post and I enjoyed…

January Notes
Everything in the garden is resting. The only green I see are the juniper trees standing tall in the low sunlight, the very few boxwoods peeking out from the mulch, and the amazing pincushion plants that somehow keep their green leaves during the coldest time of year. I start to grow tired of the brown that surrounds us here in…

2025 Christmas Home Tour
Decorating our home is a passion of mine. I blame my parents for this one because as far as I can remember (there are photos to prove it) my parents have been remodeling and redecorating their home. I remember helping peel wallpaper off the walls when I was young and that pretty much ruined any chance of wallpaper being used…

Southern Colorado Trip
The words that kept coming out of my families mouth were “Wow, it’s so beautiful!”. We took a road trip to Southern Colorado which took us through the Sangre De Cristo Mountains, past the Great Sand Dunes National Park, Wolf Creek Pass (incredibly beautiful), and Mesa Verde. Going through this area in the Fall was the best decision ever as…
