Happy Easter From Our Family to Your’s

Posted on April 9, 2023 by Mama Cormier

…this Easter weekend has involved painting, drawing, getting together with family and eating…lots of eating

Every family celebrates this time of year differently but it almost always includes food. In our house it also includes drawing and painting and getting outside to walk and take photos.

Thanks to Jez for hosting Water, Water Everywhere https://jezbraithwaite.blog/2023/04/03/clyde-reflections-water-water-everywhere-170/

I’m always trying to find different ways to photograph the water that surrounds us. Here are my latest attempts to do just that.

RDP Friday – Wonderment

Posted on March 31, 2023 by Mama Cormier

…thanks to the Ragtag community for hosting RDPhttps://ragtagcommunity.wordpress.com/2023/03/31/friday-wonderment/

“The pursuit of truth and beauty is a sphere of activity in which we are permitted to remain children all our lives.”
― Albert Einstein

“Write it on your heart that every day is the best day in the year.”
― Ralph Waldo Emerson

As I take my daily walks with my camera in hand, I’m alway in the state of wonderment with the beauty that surrounds me every day. I’m saddened by the fact that so many people never see what is right in front of their eyes. Many evenings I have run out of the house with my camera in hand to catch a beautiful sunset or quietly stood by my back door to catch the birds and squirrels come to the feeder.
