    Yesterday, I posted an image of golden sunlight on prairie grass. That image was taken in the summer while this image was taken during winter. What a difference color temperature makes with the feel of a scene.

    One of My Favorites

    Golden Grass

    Even though it really does not matter, I wish I could remember where I took this image. The meta date lets me know I took this image in 2005. I also do not remember what compelled me to  take this image. Something within me was asking to press the shutter. I think what I saw was the back lighting of the scene and from the technical aspect I wanted to capture that. For me, the golden light brings out the warmth of that June morning. It has become one of my favorite images.

    It’s Wednesday, Hump Day, as they call it. I arrived home last night from recurrent training and I’m employed for another year as a flight attendant. Our training this year had a lot more inflight scenarios for us to work through, which we all liked. Hope everyone has a good day and enjoys the rest of the week.

    This was taken at a local nursery while shopping with my sister. SHe has several of these plants and is excited to see them this year. I will be in my recurrent training for the next 3 days, so no laptop and a bit of study, classroom work and testing going on. Hope everyone has a good week!

    I met this beautiful woman while on a walk around the Loveland Benson Sculpture Park. I started up a conversation with her but found her to be a little on the quiet side, possibly some shyness. I loved the way the wind blew through her hair and the intensity in her eyes. Don’t think she is my Sugar-mama but I’m always open to new relationships. Hope everyone has a wonderful Aprils Fools Day.

    I have posted images taken from the park previously so some of the sculptures you’ve already seen. The park is located on the north side of Lake Loveland and showcases, at the present time, 131 sculptures. You can follow the walking path and meander through the sculptures. If you feel a bit tired you can relax on the many benches along the pathway There are a couple of ponds in the park where youngsters can try their luck at fishing, and a gazebo with enough room to seat 50 people.
