The desert… the final chapter…

a 1

Okay, obviously it isn’t really the final chapter… we are, however, getting close to being finished with the pictures of the first part of our trip to Arizona, and we will be moving on to other things besides the desert… sort of… But before we do…

I thought I would share a few of the Photos that my 16-year-old daughter, Mollie, took.

I am endlessly thankful that she got my artistic sensibilities and my wife’s math and logic skills… if it had been the other way around, we would be in real trouble.

Fortunately, she can think… and do math… but she is also musical and poetic and creative and artistic… so… yay!

And, as I said, she has an eye for seeing the world around her… and she can capture it on film.

I loved watching her run around the desert, crouching down to get the perfect shot… considering the backgrounds… waiting for the ideal moment to capture a sunset or looking for a new vantage point.

Okay, I took that one. I was walking around in the desert and I found an old tire… with a paint can lid in it. It never ceases to amaze me that humans love nature so much that they go to all the trouble of getting out in it… and leave their freakin’ trash there.

But Mollie sees the beauty… even in a decaying bit of cactus…

a 9

Because that is just the way she is.

    Like I said before you should be a professional photographer. ..and now that I’ve seen Mollies photos. I think she should as well, imagine…her becoming a wildlife photographer for National Geographic…being paid good money to travel the earth and photograph it for posterity.And then she would have the finances to take care of your silly butt when you are old. LOL
    Regarding last post with the coloured fire, I have a big cast iron chiminea on my back patio, I wonder, would those coloured packets would be able to burn in one of those? I’m going to send my brother to that posting so he can see it. He’s going to want to go out and immediately get some.
