Fascinations with...

I don’t know why but I have fascinations with Sunsets, road scenes, sunrises… Oh wait what I am I doing?  This would just keep going on and on.  Because I think I have fascinations with everything that has to do with nature.

But I guess my favorite 3 would have to be

     A: Sunsets

     B: Road scenes

     C: The Moon

I find myself waiting around on a country road just waiting for the sun to go down so I can get that shot.  I stop in the middle of the road (well sometimes I have been known to just take the shot without pulling off) to take a road shot.  You know you are going down the road and you see the most beautiful photo in the road right ahead of you.

I guess I have just learned to stop and smell the roses.  I take the time to see the beauty in the world.  I guess my Nikon camera did that for me.  Because before it, I could have cared less about getting a shot of the sunset or the road ahead or even the moon. 

I leave you with some new photos of these three items that I hold so dear.  I always say that God has been busy painting me a photo.  Let me share Gods photos with you!

Vic Needs Coffee Oct 15, 2008, 12:18pm EDT
That's cool. I live near Lake Ontario, Niagara Falls and the Niagara River so I tend to like sunsets, water and flowers.

I agree!
Quinn (aka Entwife) Blackburn Oct 23, 2008, 9:38am EDT
I think it may be that each sunset, road and glimpse of moon is utterly unique... no matter how many times you see these things they are new, different and full of potential.
Charles Temm JR Oct 23, 2008, 8:14pm EDT
those are all neat subjects that many of us see constantly but often with little thought or appreciation
