  • A Photo Edit


    These are from the same photo yet the
    overall feeling from each pic is very different.

    I think in this pic you see the differences between them more; height, age, ability.
    His little white hand stands out. And you see it is on a farm at sunset.


     What I wanted to show in this pic were the  similarities,
    the T-shirts and sweats and the way they stand.
    I also wanted to capture their closeness.

    Which photo do you like best and why?

  • Behind the Gate


    I posted this photo of a gate

    It makes you want to know what is on the other side... a mystery.
    That was the fun part of the pic,taking a gate in the middle of nowhere
    and making it appear to be somewhere.
    Maybe guarding a cemetery, mansion or insane asylum.



    I guess there used to be a road ,now it is just woods,and an overgrown path.
    The name on the post is "Ressonia Lodge".
    I would love to know the history here.

  • What Do You See in Photos?


    What do you see in this photo?
    Do you see what caught my eye,
    the story of the scene,the past or present?
     
    Do you see what made me stop to take this photo?
    It was the light on the corn,it looked golden.
    Can you envision the hard work, blood, sweat and tears it took to clear the land
    and build a farm?
    Plowing, sowing, reaping and offering prayers of petition and thanksgiving.


    What do you see in these photos?

  • What Xanga Means to Me,This Post is for You (Edit)

    I tagged all my friends,this is for you.

    I am always amazed by the community here.
    I am amazed that people continue to comment and recommend my pictures and posts.
    I am amazed that often my beliefs are very different from someone else's
    and yet they keep coming to my site to see what I post.
    I am truly amazed by your lives,stories,thoughts and words.

    I needed a social outlet when I started getting my three year old twin niece and nephew every weekend. I loved having them more than anything but I no longer had social time on the weekends.
    I found Xanga and it filled that gap in my life.
    I posted pics here and there and found that people loved them so I had a new creative outlet too.
    Over the years I have grown in my photography because you have encouraged me
    and I have wanted to show you my world.

    I knew about 25  Xangans from church and the area when I started my Xanga in 2006,
    over the years I have personally met about 80 more,my goal is 100.
    So many of you are more than online friends, some of you know me well...Vi!!
    Angi1972 is about the closest friend I have ever had.

    Last year when I was working through the pain of my past and some depression
    Dan (TheTheologiansCafe) kept me from sinking,
    he messaged me daily, he prayed for me, IMed me and listened to me pour out my heart.
      Krissy_cole, xcholo4u, VaneDave, Saintvi,     Buddly47, Katers, Momgonemadd, WildWomanoftheWest, my Xanga mom Dingdongdingbat, Swamprad, AliasUndercover,
    Old Hat, Casmarie, CallMeQuell, xthread, John, UnworthyofHisgrace, DanishDoll, Beli_grrl,
    Bricker, MooncatBlue, Blue_summer and others have all encouraged me in messages
    and many many others in comments and prayers.

    Over the years you've upheld me when I was low, and let me be there for you at times too.
    You've made me laugh and cry,shared your stories, beliefs, thoughts,
    lives, time and friendship, joys and sorrows.
    Someone is ALWAYS here!!
    Even in the wee hours of the morn if I need to talk
    I can pulse and someone will respond.

    Another thing you have done is taught me about different ways of life,
    exposed me to other theologies, lifestyles and cultures.
    I have met, come to know and  love some people very different from myself...
    including Muslims, trannies, Wiccans and athiests.

    For the encouragement and love, many comments, kind thoughts, prayers,
    recommendations, messages, friends requests and subscriptions,
    for  reading my blog and allowing me in to your life...
    I sincerely offer my gratitude and say Thank You.
