My Photography from August 2014 to January 2015

Sorry I haven't posted in a while, I have been in the process of creating new things which I will share with you a little later...

For right now,
 
Here are some more photos from 2014 for you to enjoy.

There are quite a few so grab a hot cup of coffee and take your time :)

JUST GO WITH IT...

As you all know, I really like taking pictures.

What you may not know is that I also love looking at cloud formations and stargazing too.  I do not claim to be an expert..as a matter of fact beyond Orion's Belt, and the Big / Little Dipper's, I couldn't name a constellation if my life depended on it...but they sure are beautiful to look at :)

I can however tell the difference between the sun, moon and stars :)...that has to count for something right?

Now that we have established that I am not an astronomer, we can move on :)

Photography from August

Looks like it's holding a ball of light

I have recently discovered another wonderful way to share my photos with all of you besides this blog of course  :)...
The Weather Network

 If you happen to be looking through the vast amount of fantastic pics on their site, don't be surprised to find my name under some of the photos :)

This post is basically a continuation of NATURE...Up Close & Personal "August 2014 edition"

NOTE:  I will add a green check-mark to the pictures  I have added to 
The Weather Network

Here are all the August pics I have collected so far :)

I have a bunch, so you might want to grab a cup of coffee and maybe a gooey cinnamon bun...

Can you tell I'm watching my diet?  :(
Ha ha haaaaa...
If you need a reason, have something sweet  for me :)

Here is a poem for all of you to enjoy..

NATURE...Up Close and Personal

I would like to dedicate this post to a
lovely couple I met during one of my photography excursions.
 

 

This one's for you Dale and Gord

 I hope it was worth the wait :)

I'm sure you've heard the expression,
"You can't see the forest for the trees"...

When you stand  next to a tree, it's just a tree...
but, stand in an open field and look at a thousand trees...
well that's a whole different thing

I enjoy dusting off my camera now and again and going out on the path near my apartment building and taking photos of nature.
I especially love macro photography because it allows me to see detail that would ordinarily be missed.

So, if you find yourself walking along a path...stop and look, truly examine what is before you, you're sure to see something spectacular.

For this post, I have created a new expression...

"You can't see life for its abundance"

For example...

How many times have you seen grass, heavy with dew,  glistening in the morning light?

Now imagine for a moment how that same dew would look if you were the same size as the grass?

I think I managed to capture it...

I had to crouch down in the grass and got a bit of dew on the camera lens, 

however, the effect actually made the photo look even more surreal.
