Life is good

We all get busy with work, family and just day to day responsibilities but, don't forget to stop long enough to think of family, laugh about old times or to plan something fun or relaxing for the weekend. Do something thoughtful for your significant other or just tell them why you love them.

We were sitting in our house cooking dinner when we decided to pack it all up and head out for a spur of the moment picnic. We didn't know where we were heading but, we had our food, cameras, the dog and an energetic 3 year old. We found our spot and were able to get some nice pictures after eating. The first picture was taken at the spot that we found and eventually wound up eating at. I love those spur of the moment trips to take pictures, picnic, shop for toys with Noah but, I also love hanging out at home with the family. I guess I have found my balance and I am happy to have what I have and to be where we are. Life is good . . .

First pictures

I have always loved photography but, never pursued it beyond high school electives. I love getting in the Tahoe and heading out with my camera. The idea that you really don't know what you will wind up with or what you will experience while out shooting. It's always a great stress relief and I hope to learn more as I go along. So far trying to understand the different aspects and options available has been a little confusing but, it's still a lot of fun.

The pictures above were taken here in Juneau a couple days back. The sunset was amazing and it was just another quiet day here in Alaska. The 5 pictures above were all taken out the road here in Juneau and include Lupine at Eagle Beach, the Chilkoot snow capped mountain range, and an eagle at Sunshine cove.

Have a great weekend . . .
