Bumbles & Light

It’s great to branch out every now and then, to try something new or just a little different. It’s how I ended up arriving at my current photo processing style and yet I’m still always open to trying out new…

There’s really nothing nicer than being able to spend beautiful days just relaxing on the beach. Playing and digging in sand or paddling in the cold lake water, jumping over each slow, soft wave as it approaches the beach. Friday…

The best thing, I think, about taking part in these challenges, is that not only can the prompts encourage you to branch out a little, pull yourself out of a rut or try new things… but also feeling so wonderfully…
