crisp.

Yesterday had to have been one of the most gorgeous days ever. I was only about a block away from my house when I urgently pulled the car over so I could get out to capture a few click, click, clicks of that sky. I couldn’t get enough of the beauty and decided to walk up to Mt. Tabor Park to take it all in. Each step I took from my doorstep to the top of Mt. Tabor was full of delight. I couldn’t get enough of that perfect blue sky, the sun shining through those white puffy clouds, the feeling of the crisp, fresh air on my cheeks, and the sounds of nature singing. It’s days like this that I want to capture the perfect image and perhaps place it in my hands and eat it all up! What an amazing experience it was for me to finally capture this new season in my new home. The entire time on my walk I kept thinking to myself, “Thank you, Universe! Thank you! What a truly gorgeous day it is!”

I had once been resistant to the thought of summertime coming to a screeching halt. I changed my mind after yesterday.

Again, I am humbled.

awaken.

It’s been a little over a year since I started clicking away on that round, silver button. And, here I am finally starting my very own photo blog. I’ve never had a blog before  and I don’t think I can call facebook a blog. However, I do owe it to all my fb pals who have totally encouraged me to keep going via the click click clicks of their ”likes this” button each time I post another photo I’ve taken. Thank you, friends. And, did I tell you that I’ll hopefully be displaying my work at a local cafe in Portland? Pretty cool!

This photo was taken on the first weekend of August. I was sitting above the reservoirs at Mt Tabor watching this most incredible sunset surrounded by two of my favorite people. This photo was later nominated “Photo of the Week” by the Portland Neighborhood online network. http://community.portlandneighborhood.com/profiles/blogs/portland-blog-this-week-in-17 I might not yet be the next Annie Griffiths Belt, but I’m sure having fun!

I am humbled.
