Last 2019 Super Moon

When the full moon came up Wednesday night, it was far to over cast to get even a glimpse of it.  The next morning, however, the clouds were gone and a beautiful sight to awake for was shining.

Big Fish; Little Kayak

A cold front moved back in.  Yuck.  My last kayak adventure was several days ago.  This lake has some pretty good sized fish in it.  Many of them like to jump RIGHT. NEXT. TO. MY. BOAT.  And swamp me.  It's happened enough, I'm no longer screeching like a girl, but my neighbor that likes to go out with me does!  😄  Fish were jumping at the islands edge, so we parked and I was able to capture this guy.  Believe he is just a carp, but a big one.

Sunset in Southwest Texas

Seeing the sun for the first time in several days yesterday was pure bliss!!  And the spectacular sunset that started the evening was breath taking.  Here is the progression.

This heron brought my attention to what was happening behind me.

And when I thought it was over, the colors came back for another level of spectacular!

Visitors

It's been cold and rainy.  Yesterday the weather finally broke and warmed enough one could stand to be outside long enough to visit with the neighbors.  While visiting, I realized there was a heron down at the end of the cove.  We don't see many blue herons down here; the white are far more common.

"Stalking"

It's A Good Life

Yesterday I enjoyed:

• a long kayak on the lake
• a cheery fire
• a nice glass of wine
• husband and "kids" by the fire 
• a beautiful sunset
• and a couple visitors

But mostly I enjoy a grand life indeed....

It's Beginning to Look Like.....

The flakes weren't as big as they had been by the time I got the camera all set up and ready to go.  Still made for a nice shot.  

2018 Portraits

Fall makes for such pretty photos.  I've been wanting to get a 'family' shot of us using the '40 as a prop.  I like these.
