Photographs To Cheer Your Day!

[Changing4Best]

I thought maybe we could make up a chain of our photographs that would cheer us up a bit. I have found photography to be a great way to get out of the house, find interesting things to look at and then to share. ANd I have also found that folks enjoy seeing beautiful and interesting things. So! Here goes.


In celebration of the season, and to start this photo collage of photos of stained glass that I have done.



This is a stained glass lamp at our nearby Cultural Arts Center here in Andrews, NC. The building is a National Historical Site.

Here is another view of it.



ANd this is from one of the stained glass windows in that building, of which there are some 20 or so.



I took a series of about 30 photographs of this building. Originally it was the First Baptist Church here in town, but as that church outgrew it's buiding, it moved into a newer larger one. However, this old building and it's priceless stained glass windows has been well preserved.

I do all kinds of photos, and I shall try to share them here sometimes. Please feel free to share your photos too! Hopefully we can all be cheered up with these, and in the sharing get to know one another better. Art is theraputic, both for the artist and the viewers!!!

I took that picture with my phone in Yellowstone October 2011. Some of the most amazing scenery. I have over 300 pictures from that trip. You can't shoot any "wrong" shots with backgrounds like that. :)

The mountains certainly are stunning Sheila!

intothelight I can imagine that it would be hard to shoot any wrong shots in such a situation! Wow!

This is the view out one of the windows in our Chultural Arts Center, the one with all the stained glass window pictures I shared. These church steeples are on top of the church I attend.



I shot this one last winter, but I love it!



I shot this one about a month ago...

Just a cool picture of the moon. Mountains near Denver. Second one is a picture of a cut line in the foothills that I took a long time ago when I was out riding (quading/dirtbiking) with friends once.
