Is religion the new satan?
An open letter to all preachers and teachers everywhere: I get so weary of what comprises most sermons and teachings in most churches today. It is of no practical benefit to me whatsoever to sit and listen to someone preach for an hour about all that is wrong with religion, or anything ELSE for that [...]
Holding course and keeping it all in focus.
It’s so easy to get caught up in the momentum of things…like a snowball rolling downhill…until that massive snowball turns into an avalanche and buries you, and THEN you realize, “Uh-oh. This thing is OUT OF CONTROL.” If you can somehow dig your way out of the embankment you’ve become buried in, it could be [...]
Grassed (as opposed to “beached”)
On my way home from my shoot Saturday, I caught a glimpse through the trees of this abandoned back yard treasure as I drove off the exit ramp. Not wanting to stop ON the exit ramp, I turned in the direction of the boat and found a driveway leading to an abandoned house, all boarded [...]
Watch Your Step!
Have you ever been at a place in your life where you felt you were standing on the edge of a great precipice of decision? You know that where you are is just run down and worn out and abandoned. It’s time to move to a new place…a different place. The door is before you [...]
Light My Path
(I’ll eventually get this whole thumbnail thing figured out for this theme, but until then, for a larger view of this image, click on the preview on the home page.) I’ve never been a creative purist. In life, perhaps HOW you get to a place is as–if not MORE–important than where you get to. Imagery [...]
Local Farm Workers
This is an old antique tractor that sits on display in a neighbor’s field. The background of the original setting was not horrible, but neither was it very interesting. So I start plundering through my collection for some background images that needed a little something extra to make THEM more interesting. An old shot of [...]
Winter Wonderland
What a rarity…TWO snows of significant depth (that means 2-4 inches in SC language) in a span of just 2 weeks! Shot this view from across the field where I go trail riding. Followed the typical processing with a little toying around with filters. Almost has an infrared look to it!
A Rare Treat!
SNOW in SC! Enough to actually be pretty and play in! A not so rare treat: Donna changes her mind…AGAIN. For those who have come here deliberately (or so you THOUGHT), you may be wondering how this happened. Everything looks different, it’s even a different domain name–or did you even notice that? So whuzzup?! It [...]
Roadside Farmstead
I got this shot while on one of my photo expeditions (affectionately called ‘photo hunts’) with my friend, Karen Osborne. We had just left a tour of the Poinsette Bridge and took a wrong turn, but a wrong turn with some fantastic country views. We eventually reluctantly turned back for fear we might end up [...]
