Today we will experience our final installment in a series about landscape photography.
Let us return to the American west one more time.
This colorful photo was made I believe at Colorado’s Black Canyon of The Gunnison. Obviously I was at the top of the canyon when I made this. Composing that tree off center left, was purposeful as the tree leaned to our right. The white clouds then helped fill the open space of blue sky.

This rock and water image was created in Custer State Park in South Dakota I do believe. Again the composition was simple but thoughtful and purposeful. It is okay for viewers not to think about our intentions when we share images, as long as we know why we do what we do.

I love “high color” when I can find it, and Utah is a location where uncommon color and beauty is common.
The image below was made I do believe, in the last light of day. My exposure was I am sure, intentionally kept low in order to preserve the mood.
You know me, when it comes to mood and atmosphere.

In my last post I took us to the Smokey Mountains of Tennessee. Below we return to another springtime image of that location.

The Smokey’s are a wonderful place to hike deep into the forest. You can of course get lost so take care if you do so.
Sticking with spring, below we have a tree rimmed pond in Wisconsin.

Of course, autumn is the jackpot season for peaceful but colorful images. All are from Wisconsin.



Oft times you will find manmade objects in suburban rivers which cause waterfalls. Take advantage of everything you find.
In the case below, I used a purposeful slow shutter speed to soften the streams of water falling over the edge. Gentle water.

Of course, to me sunrise/sunset imagery with any part of the land showing, are landscapes. Regardless of how abstract they might appear to be.


Next time I will mostly leave the land.
For those of you who saw my post, basically on unborn children, should they live or die, and you have decided to leavethis blog and me, may God Bless you all the same. You of course have every right to do that. For those that concur with my view, we have a long battle ahead.
You who have lleft, of course are more than welcome to return if you should choose. I never hate.
I cannot be the sort of person who “goes along to get along”. I am what I am, as are those who dislike my perpensity to be like that.
In the end, my feelings for children, especially those in still in the womb, will super seed anything to do with me personally, or of those who read this blog.
We are not as important.
When possible, I choose life over death, especially for those who have no power of their own. I speak of the the yet unborn inocents of human life. A gift from God!
Those who believe what I believe, take heart, it is not courage but Faith, that will give you the strength to stand by your convictions. Just remember who and what you stand for, stand by, and why.
When we look at a woman pregnant with child, whether it shows or is too new to do so, each and every one of us, has been there too. It’s amazing.
We should thank God that our parents did not abort us.
Psalm 127:3…..Children are a gift of the Lord. The fruit of the womb is a reward…..Behold children are an inheritance of Yahweh.
Another way of saying it.
Psalm 127:3 – Children are a Heritage From the LORD
May God Bless and may your life be long and fruitful.
