Winter Retreat 2011

This past weekend we had "CREW" winter retreat.   It was great!  We had two services about God's purpose and Building up the Walls.   There was team games and group games,  messes and spills.  Meeting new friends and connecting with old friends.   To God be the glory great things He has done.

Another day in the life of a photographer

     After i dropped my daughter off at her gymnastic class, i decided to drive around to see if there was anything worth taking a picture of.  I spotted an old barn and silo.   It was a perfect spot to snap some shoots.   Who thought you could find some cool pictures amongst garbage and debris.   I hope you enjoy what i saw through the lens of my camera.

 

Creativity...

I love taking pictures. With the limitation of Picasa, Picnik and Lightroom i have enjoyed transforming my photos into art. I enjoy the act of taking an ordinary item and making someone see something new. That is what i feel true artistry accomplishes.   Here are a few i took this week.  

"Paradise Lost"?

    I took the afternoon off to see my daughter in

   Eric Whitacre’s “Paradise Lost”, with my mother-in-law. 

     The theater was beautiful and the music was superb. There were 200 students from different colleges and high schools that participated in this Readers Theater.  With only the words and music, it was still very exciting.  Looking forward in hearing more from this talented producer and composer.
