St Pete at sunset

Back from a week in the sun. Our time share was totally shut down for about 4 months to update it. It really looks good now, and we had a wonderful time in the sun, just relaxing.

It seems all my sunset photographs were stars this year.

The last one is my favorite.

The rest was great, now I see why we needed the rest....to prepare for the yard work waiting for Jimmy and me.

Crosses for Good Friday

I, like lots of other people photograph crosses.

It is one of the many things I seem to collect.

My daughter and daughter-in-law have cross collections in their homes.

I collect the photographs.

This first photo was taken in Cartagena, Columbia, February 2009,

it is high on the hill overlooking the city.Next is at a little church in Rhea County.

I never thought about the significance of this cross being in the foundation of the church until I was preparing this post. It just hit me, they were sending the message that their church's foundation was the cross. Nice message. The lawn of McCampbell United Methodist Church, close to Dandridge, Tennessee.

The next 3 photos were all taken at Lake Junaluska Conference and Retreat Center, May 2008. The first photo is a natural grown cross, donated to Lake Junaluska.

While there I knew I had to capture the famous Lake Junaluska cross at sunrise. Inside one of the lobbies at Lake Junaluska.

Laurel Valley Community Church in Virginia.

The August post on this church can be view here.

(Darla, it is 'your' church.)

Don't know the name of this church,

it was in the area of Marion, Viriginia.

St Augustine at sunset, seen from a boat, April 2008.

Hope you have enjoyed a small collection of my

photographs of crosses on this Good Friday.

St Pete at Sunset from October 2008

Today we should be arriving back at Fort Lauderdale,

and leaving the ship. We will be traveling to

St Pete Beach for a week at our time share.

Hope to be seeing 7 nice sunsets while we are there.

Last nights sunset

This sunset photograph was taken last night from my backyard. I saw the glow on the neighbor's house and went running around the back to take a look. The left tree is the same tree in my profile photograph.

Pink sunset at St Pete Beach - Post 2

A continuation of the previous post. By now we should be on our way to Spring City from Atlanta. I still will not be home until after work on Monday night. I will stay in Spring City with Jimmy and go to work on Monday from here.

St Pete at sunset

These were also taken during our trip in June.

They have a Hawaii feel to them, although I have never been to Hawaii. Everybody dreams of going there. My dream trip is to Alaska. Someday.....

Fall Migration - Sky Watch October 10

This may appear to be an odd combination. But all 4 photographs were taken standing in the same spot within seconds of each other, this past Monday evening in downtown Knoxville. I just turned around in a circle and snapped what I saw.

Please visit Sky Watch Friday to see wonderful photographs from all over the world.

Grand Canyon at Sunset

Sunset in the Grand Canyon, September 2007.

East Tennessee sunset

Sunset from my backyard. You can tell from the bare tree it was taken in the winter. This is one of my favorite sunsets, although I seem to like a lot of them. I have this one framed in my home.

Sunset and the Moon

The sunset was yesterday, the moon was around midnight.
