Day 80 - More Water
We've had lots of rain but the last few days the sun has been shining. But with the rains come many flooded fields. I love the contrast of the blue and green in this photo though, and I love clouds...you don't see them in the sky in this photo but you see the reflection. The sunny days after days of rain are the best....even though it's tough for the farmers, I do love how green everything is when there's so much rain.

Day 79 - Cottage in the Woods
Now isn't this a house that could be taken straight out of the children's oldtime story of Hansel and Gretal?? I love it...so cute, so quaint, so peaceful!

I drove by this older run down home and they had this interesting window with this sign posted below...had to take a photo of it!

Day 77 - eeeeeuuuuuwwwww!!
While I was taking some grad photos of a couple of beautiful young ladies, I really had a LOT of fun with this little brother! He was such a card and a lot of fun to capture with his expressions!

Day 76 - Caught ya!
I was out taking grad photos of a couple of lovely ladies...I like to have a little fun with them so I had caught this one comin outa the outhouse! :-) Just for kicks! Makes for fun photos!
But I love the contrast of the grays/whites of the outhouse, the purple of her dress and the green of the trees. Fun photo!

Day 75 - Lots of Ducks...no bucks!
With all the rain we've had, there's ducks making homes in every ditch and slough. Farmers fields are covered with water. They've either seeded and everything is drowned out or they haven't seeded yet because it's been too wet and now it's getting too late to get their crops in. Gotta feel for them.
But, it is neat to see all the different types of ducks that are within the camera's length to get a shot or two. :-)

Day 74 - Into the Sunset
When I was wanting to take a photo of the train tracks with the beautiful sunset that we had this night, as I was standing on the tracks I realized a train was coming up behind me right then. Hence, I moved off the tracks and was able to capture this cool shot instead....but I did not get my photo of the train tracks....another day though. I was quite pleased with this one though....and the previous one I posted of the train comin right at me. :-)

Day 73 - Train a comin
I was out for a bike ride and as i was going over the tracks, I stopped right on them cause I wanted to take a photo of the tracks against the beautiful sunset we were having at the moment. I heard something behind me, turned and OH! I better move up ahead and get off the tracks and therefore was able to capture this beauty!! I love it! :-)

Day 72 - Small village
When it rains, we get small towns of mushrooms growing all around. While I am still playing around with my super macro setting, I was able to get down low and capture these dainty little ones. :-) I love how the one on the bottom left is taking refuge under the covering of the bigger one. Reminds me of the One that I often take refuge in when the storms come and the rain falls...God is my fortress and my refuge..my stronghold in my time of need.

Day 71 - Reaching Out
With these dead branches, I am reminded of how when we are feeling dead and lifeless, how we reach out for life, for encouragement, for comfort..but often don't quite know where to reach out for those things. Branches often reach up and out....and we need to as well. God has placed many wonderful people in my life who are a great source of encouragement and support, and to laugh with as well. Only God can bring truth and the deepest source of life to our darkened souls.
Reaching Out by lisaspics · 365 Project
Day 70 - Fluff
hee hee, I just realized that my "little" camera has a super macro setting on it. Yep, I am a photographer but sometimes I can be a little ditzy! :-) I bought a small digital for extra curricular photos when I don't always feel like lugging my big one around. I will enjoy experimenting a bit more with this super macro setting :-)

Day 69 - Blue/Gray Serenity
bein down by the water always brings such a calm peace to me...I love it. I love the cloud formations and the reflection on the water. No matter how big the storm, we can have a peace as we walk out on a limb through those storms and into unknown territory.
To me this photo is a picture of that.

Day 64 - Red Ball
with all the rain we've been getting, it sure was wonderful to see the sun, but there's still rain coming down in the distance as you can see....you can see the haze of moisture where the buildings are...made for a very cool photo

Day 60 - Lakefront Camper
literally...this is a lakefront camper. We got so much rain recently that a number of the campers on the long weekend got rained out. Some folks stepped out of their campers in the morning with water up to their knees. Happy long weekend camping in May! :-)

Day 59 - Watchin You!
haha, this cat was eating the dog's food so we let him off the leash and he treed it!! 1st cat for Copper to tree! :-) It was kinda fun to watch. I think Copper scared him away for good with his howling at the base of the tree. Poor kitty!

Day 58 - The Past?
Are the railroads and elevators becoming a thing of the past? This overgrown railroad sure seems to becoming that. Maybe I should've changed this one to black and white but I loved the white against the blue.

Day 53 - Better Days
This old truck has definitely seen it's better days. But I love capturing old things and imagining/hearing the people from that day standing around it with their overalls, straw hats and wheat hanging out of their mouths. :-) Old trucks, old homesteads...love those kind of pics.

Day 51 - Stuck for good?
the owner of a gas station had a great idea putting these old trucks into the ground. It's always an eye catcher when you drive by. :-)

Day 45 - Everlasting
just like the evergreen tree, the hope/faith that we have can be everlasting too
Everlasting by lisaspics · 365 Project
Day 44 - Hope
I love taking photos of church steeples. This photo reminds me that often when there is darkness- negativity, frustration, depression - pressing in all around (dark limbs of the trees), new seasons are coming (buds on the trees), and there is always hope (church steeple). This season too shall pass.
