10 on 10: April 2018

We have had some pretty spectacular sunrises lately what I am seeing on my drive to work.  It’s a bummer because I am always on the highway and not able to stop.  So on my day off I decided to drag myself out of bed and head to the beach while it was still dark.  Deerfield Beach is one of my favorites because of the pier.  So I settled in to wait and watch the sun make it’s appearance once again, and to be grateful for a new day.

There was plenty of cloud cover and I was not sure I was going to get too much, but I loved how the sky changed color as the sun got higher.

Here is my morning on the beach watching the sun show it’s face.

Tell me a Story: November 2017

Two weeks before I got clearance to go back to work after surgery, Richard decided to buy me a new car.  I was pretty excited about the car, but it stood in the driveway for 2 weeks without me driving it because I did not have clearance from the doctor to drive.

The Friday before I started up work again he suggested that I drive the car to the local park.  We could watch the sunset and then I could drive it back in the dark.  So that is what we did.

Here are a few images from our time at the park.

I loved ending off on a little note of tranquility after the speeding jetski.  It was nice to get out and enjoy the evenings sunset and feel a little taste of freedom before going back to work.

Tell me a Story: June 2017

It is so hard to believe that we are halfway through the year already.  For this months blog post, I wanted to do something different.  After all the rain the wetlands was not a place I wanted to visit.  Hot, sticky and mosquito’s come to mind.  So I decided to go to the Butterfly House…..hot, sticky, mosquitos!!! Add to the equation birds that poop on you.  It was a fun day.  I had to go and wash my shirt and ended up leaving my cellphone in the bathroom.  Thank you Lord for honest people.  All in all it was an eventful day.

Here are just some of the many images I took of the butterflies.  For this shoot I took 4 lens and ended up only using the Macro.

I hope you enjoy some of nature’s beautiful creatures.
