This picture made me wonder “What does the sun see beyond those trees?” Hope you all enjoy!

Weekly Photo Challenge: Changing Seasons
This photo was taken just as Fall was really starting to hit its stride. This tree had exploded into a vibrant red, while most of the others were lagging behind. I hope you all enjoy it!

Changing seasons
With fall almost done and winter knocking on our door, I decided to revisit some of my fall photos. This one really stood out to me, so I figured I would share. Enjoy!

A tribute to strong women…
With one of the big news headlines right now being the women who are suing the military for their right to fight in combat situations, I decided to sit back and think about this from my standpoint. Women have long been handling stressful situations, both in times of battle and in times of peace. Our government and military have said for years that women should not have a place in combat situations. However, where was this mandate when the US (or any other country for that matter) was being explored and settled? When the wagons rolled west, was someone there to tell the women that if their wagon and family was attacked, to NOT defend themselves? To avoid conflict? To let themselves be killed or worse? I think that the willingness to be in a combat situation should be up the individual, not someone who sits behind a desk and is not in that situation. But enough of my soapbox. This picture is a statue at the State Capital of Kansas as a tribute to the Pioneer Women. Enjoy!

Weekly Photo Challenge: Thankful
I haven’t posted anything in a few days (as I’m sure you’ve noticed). We’ve been busy with life, as life tends to do. But I immediately knew which photo I wanted for this week’s photo challenge. I took this photo while doing some hiking earlier this fall. This is my first ever attempt to do some mixing with Photoshop, so please bear with me. I’m still very much in the learning phase, and appreciate any helpful hints you would like to offer. I am completely thankful for my wonderful wife. We have been married now for 12 years, and every day I find that love her even more. She is wonderful and supportive. Plus, she puts up with me. I am very happy that she is there to share life with me.
