I started hiking a few years ago and soon I had the camera in hand and wanted to capture the beauty that I saw when I was out in nature. I had a few friends state, if you ever get an opportunity to hike to Mt Washington take it! It was mentioned once, and…

Lake of the Clouds
I started my trek to the Lake of the Clouds out of Crawford Notch. We transcended Mt. Webster and its cliffs. My ribs bounced off a few of them and my belly was grateful for the connection. With the 20 lbs pack on my back the climb continued to Mt. Jackson We continued…
Exposed Ridge Line
I have always had a loving relationship with rocks. I thought I knew what I was getting into when I said yes to a hiking adventure, but I was wrong! The exhilaration of climb was followed by a daunting decent from 6200 feet. The views were breath taking, the air was clean and crisp,…
Sunday July 8th
I can’t remember a day that I was so pissed off at life. Mad to be out in the middle of nowhere. Frustrated cause my feet were on fire and toes felt like they were going to fall off. I was an absolute basket case full of tears, my anxiety, my depression, my self-doubt, all…
Fall @ the lake
The beauty of nature surrounds us, we just need to take the time to breathe and take it in. There is a magical place not far from home that has a balance of water, trails and tranquility that soothes my soul. On a glorious morning in mid-October, the sun is peaking through…
Half of the Whole
My hiking adventures have taken me to the mountains, the coast and lots of little nooks and crannies in-between. The camera in hand captures a lot of special things that I miss on first blush. This was caught along the coast of Maryland when visiting a lighthouse. I believe we all have a…
Balance
There are miles of rails between the east and the west. The beauty of this is that every inch, yard and mile of this wondrous system of rails is in balance. The integrity remains strong and unyielding. The human system starts out that way and over time areas of weakness arise, we have to…
Obstacles on the Path
Life has a funny way of showing up and keeping it real. There are no road maps, there are no instruction manuals to show us the way to go as we venture forward. Unlike hiking, there are clues along the way to keep you on the path. Life offers us many obstacles and how we…
Secret Garden
There is a place close to home that you can lose yourself in the beauty of nature. In the the middle of suburbia where you feel like you are in a secret garden. The grounds have been nurtured and loved by the caretakers. The gardens have shape and textures that give and go with…
Summer Colors
Found a rare opportunity to wander the grounds and explore the flowers of summer. The vibrancy of the colors shown bright in the sunshine. While capturing the beauty of the distinct contrast of white and greens a butterfly danced in front of the lens. It settled among the white flowers and fluttered its wings…
1770 Church west of Mississippi
I have a fascination for old churches and relics. Upon a recent adventure to St. Louis I stumbled upon this beautiful church within walking distance of the St. Louis arch. The Basilica of St. Louis is the oldest cathedral west of the Mississippi. This church has recently went through major renovations. The church is very…
Mountain Top
After a recent visit to Mountain Top, I got to relax and enjoy the beauty of nature. A warm genuine couple opened their home and I got to embrace a wonderful weekend. Sitting by the lake embracing the morning coffee. The water lily’s opening to the day as the day started with a sweet…
