“A single crocus blossom ought to be enough to convince our heart that springtime, no matter how predictable, is somehow a gift, gratis…a grace.”

How many of us are coming out of 2020 and ready for new start? If I’ve learned anything, it would be to pursue things that matter and find joy in every moment. Photography remains the one constant to help me linger in the beauty all around me, in every season. And for that, I’m truly grateful.

Snow in Mid April!

Things that don’t go together are daffodils and crocuses in the snow!  I grabbed my camera and headed to The Morton Arboretum with my kids when it began to snow yesterday in the middle of April (4/14 to be exact).  It was actually really beautiful and refreshing.  I love these images.  There’s something really beautiful about fresh snow…we just didn’t expect it in April. Some of my favorite images EVER!

It’s been a long Winter, but I think Spring is around the corner.  This is April 8th, and I’m spotting a little more green and I see little flowers popping up here and there.  Woot!

Art is man’s nature and and nature is God’s art.
