Insect Shell

I spied this insect shell while walking around looking for photos to take here at home yesterday. It is stuck on one of our wood post holding up the carport. I didn't realize it was just a shell at first, until I got closer to take the photograph. It has a

The Fall (A Poem)

I made this poem up the other day. I was thinking about fall and how the beginning of the season is the end of the leaves. They are colorful, but it means they are dying. It is sad and beautiful at the same time. I hope y'all like the poem.   The Fa

Double Exposure Flag

This is my latest double exposure photo. The only thing I would like to change is the little flags by the graves. I don't think they are necessary since I have the large flag. The only problem is that I don't have a photo of the graves without the flags. O
