Almost every morning I start my day out spending time outside somewhere. I’m up early with a cup of coffee and out to see what the day has to offer. I say my daily prayer to God and then just open myself up to receive whatever he and the world has to offer me.
I always have my camera with me, but don’t necessarily have to shoot anything. The skies were dramatic on this morning and I got several images that really expressed that drama. But as I was heading down the road back towards town I looked to my left and immediately had to stop. There was so much quiet and peace and solitude in the view before me. I got my images and then stood there for some time allowing that peace to fill me.
Peace to you and the world.
