Capturing the World

No paintings this week. I have been so busy working and getting up at 5 am is such a drag. I’m glad it’s over now. I have four days to devote to painting, cooking, planting and maybe sleeping :)

Today I decided to post some photos I’ve taken over the years. I am not a photographer but I love capturing things in the camera. I bought an inexpensive camera this year so I can take it wherever I go. I used to borrow my sister’s camera, now I have my own. So cool!

I took this picture for my first photography class. I believe this was from Ocean City.

Who would have thought a rooster and a dog would get along. I love this one. The dog looks a little apprehensive in approaching the rooster.

Arachnid. I saw this big spider while we were walking to visit some relatives in the province. This was taken during my vacation to the Philippines.


One of my top favorites! I don’t remember the name of the garden but this was taken during one of my garden trips.


“What a wonderful world,” says the bug. It seems like it’s really enjoying the scenery of Huntley Meadows.

One of my favorite movies is Bambi. I always take pictures of deers wherever I see them. This is one of my favorites. Taken from Shenandoah National Parks.

Lovely ladybug. How cute are they?

And here’s some more photos of one of my favorite subjects.
