Holy Stained Glass!


I think that this is such a cool photo of the stained glass with the silhouette of the heads of people in front of it. I did not have my fancy camera with me but the iPhone did it justice for what it is worth. Can I hear an Amen?

Jack Frost was here

This image I took after there was a heavy frost on the ground.  The morning sun was coming up so I decided to go outside and set the camera on a paver stone that was sunk in the gound.  I was hoping to catch a little Jack Frost on the blades of grass.  I did not get down on my hands and knees to take the picture.  I did bend over and grunt while trying to take a peek at the display on the camera.  As I was grunting, I did get a few shots of the frost and I did not notice the droplet of water but thought somehow that the droplet of water was on my camera lens not on the blade of grass.  When I downloaded the images, I realized it was not on my lens but actually on a blade of grass.  It's the simplicity of the one single dew drop with the reflection of the grass in the droplet make it a grand photo for me!  I totally love it!  Click on the images to see the detail of both!

Dainty Daisy

Amazing how beauty is missed until it is cropped and zoomed in on.  Love the colors against the white!
