… reading in bed, candles, diving into a new project, learning something new, crisp crunchy leaves underfoot, hearing my daughter laugh, starting a new book, finishing a book, organizing, floating on my back in the pool and staring at the sky, writing, craft supplies, photography, poetry, a good massage, knowing smiles, singing along to the radio, getting things done, comfy bedding, hot chocolate, paying attention to the details, libraries and bookstores, campfires, astronomy, finding beauty in the everyday, impromptu road trips, quiet, journaling, learning about myself, waking up and reading in bed (preferably with coffee), home, interesting flowers, affection, Sleepytime tea, capturing a moment in time with my camera, true laughter, soft rain.

Naomi,
I have a friend that you should meet. You are both into nature photography and have similar styles. You are both creative and fun. Her name is Robbye and her website is http://www.RobbyeLossing.com. She would be a fun person to collaborate with too!

I am happy to have found your blog. It’s so full of beautiful photographs and art work…..Your series of leaves is awesome….I love the last shot where the light is bringing out all the different colors…..
Happy to meet you too, Nancy. Your photography is gorgeous. I love macro images of nature too, as you can probably see. 🙂
Love fall leaves – even in TX 🙂
Some parts of the country already have frost. So jealous.
On a happy note, yesterday we got screens installed for the French doors in our living room. They are open as I write this. Love love love it! Morning crisp air and chirping birdies.
Love the black and white photo!
That one just called out to be desaturated! I love it too. 🙂
