As some of you know from Facebook, I was able to take advantage of a warm day here in the Deep South and take a boat ride on Rabbit Creek. I wanted to try out a new camera I got for Christmas. I got some neat photos, as the river is always changing.
Water wearing away this stump makes it look like a flower pot. |
This log looks like a horse! |
I like the bare trees. |
Even bridges can make an interesting design element. |
My husband has a real interest in trees, especially the cypress trees that grow along the water's edge. He really loves the cypress "knees" that grow from the roots of the tree. I was able to zoom in on a few clusters of them and got a good shot of one spot in color and the other, I thought looked good in black and white.
My husband, grew up on the river - boating and fishing from an early age. He asked me to get a shot of this old sign.
As the sun breaks out, all the pines and cypress are silhouetted. We are blessed to live in a beautiful area of the country and being on the water cures a lot of "what ails ya".
I pray for a Happy and Healthy New Year for you all! Bring on 2013!!! May it be filled with love, laughter and, of course, beautiful things - like art! :)
