Candle and a Crown

For Resurrection Sunday, my Mom decided to re-purpose a wreath and toothpicks and make a crown from it.  Every night, we light the candle in the middle.  It's so pretty and calm.  I took it from an aerial angle because I've heard some photographers only take ground-level shots.  So, I tried something 'new' and came up with this. 

Handful Of Nuts

My siblings decided to collect a whole bunch of walnuts from our front yard tree and put them in a big pile.  While they were doing that, I asked my sister to hold out her hands and show me all of her nuts.  The sun was shining through the trees and onto her hands, so I like that part of the photo.  The varying colors are also nice.  I'm glad my siblings are willing to put up with my impromptu photo sessions!

Dirty Bare Feet

A friend of mine has an adorable little brother, and when we came for a visit, he showed off his climbing skills on their play set.  He stood at the top and smiled down at us, and I took a photo of his feet.  Strange, yes.  But don't photographers take photos of everything (at least, my Mama says that about me!)?

On Silver Wings

I like the combination of light and dark in this photo.  One a nice, low-wind day, I decided to do some macro photography with the flowers next to our porch.  Butterflies were fluttering around the little budding flowers, and some landed and walked around.  With a little darkening, this photo became kind of glorious, I think.  This photo shows how creative God really is.
