“Springtime in Colorado”
This is my first year living in Colorado and my first experience with spring. The weather is very interesting as it can be 80 degrees one day and snow the next day. So, I offer this unusual photograph which depicts nature and photography as both unique and extraordinary. So, what do you think? Could this nature photography art be a new fine art print offering in the New Images gallery of my website PeacemakersArt.com?

Today I received an email from one of my former students who is now in college. She was a member of my community service program in both middle school and high school. I was filled with emotion as I read her email. She not only conveyed her love and pride of family but also her love for humanity which continues into her adult life. I am so proud of her and for her personal contribution to my life. She reminds me to look for blessings each day and to express gratitude for the opportunity to live my life with freedom.
“The other day I was talking to my mom and she told me a story about how my dad showed an act of kindness and I thought I would share it with you because I know that you would appreciate it. My dad went out to lunch with his friend the other day, and while they were out at lunch a Soldier in his uniform (who my dad thinks just got back from war, because he was with his wife and baby and were all lovey dovey) went out to lunch. My dad ate his lunch with his friend and then told the waiter that he wanted to pay for the soldier and his wife’s lunch. So he paid for their lunch and then left. I thought that, even so simple, that it was a great act of kindness to show that he appreciates what the soldier does for our country.
Community service and helping out is still a huge part of my life. Down here in Maryland, I have been trying to find things to do in which I can help out. I plan on volunteering at the Ronald McDonald house and I’m not sure what else yet. But its something I plan to get involved with when things aren’t so crazy with school.”
No comments“Bear Family”
Here in another photograph that highlights great composition. Notice the opposing triangles with the placement of the land and water. This is a great photograph and was taken at Katmai National Preserve in Alaska as the bears were searching and fishing for salmon. You will find this fine art print in the “New Images” section of my nature photography gallery located in my website www.PeacemakersArt.com for your pleasure. Enjoy!
