Portrait of the Grand Canyon

The Grand Canyon is so imposing a place that I have trouble taking it all in. I prefer to photograph it in smaller "chunks". This was a beautiful clear day, but very cold and very windy (even for Oklahoma standards).

Southern Utah


I recently returned from a trip to Southern Utah with my mom. I love that area of the country. You could visit there for a month and still not see everything the area has to offer. We started off in Zion, so that is where I will begin my photos. This is the canyon with the Virgin River in the foreground.

Pretty in Pink


My carpet roses are just beginning to open. These are from last year's bounty.

Local Color


Butterflies were out in abundance this weekend following the storms last week. We are due for more storms today, so I may not see them for a couple of days. These wildflowers were on the side of the road about a half mile from the house.

Oklahoma Weather


The sky has been pretty gray lately, but yesterday there was a break between storms with glorious skies and lush greens. There really is nothing like the Oklahoma sky.
