the frost // photography

Hey guys!

   You might have noticed how I disappeared for a little while. I've had a stall in my artistic spirit, so here's some photography from... last year, I think?

   So I've been busy with other things... weddings, vacation, school... quite a combination :) Maybe a post about that will follow sometime.

   What made me want to post these old photos? Well, since fall is finally here, the frost has been collecting on our lawn almost every morning. It looks so pretty, but I haven't been able to drag myself out of bed in time to capture it :) So I thought I'd share these old things with you.

Yeah, this photo is more wintery... snow on the branches and all :)

You also may have noticed the new header and background. Like it, or no? Let me know what you guys think! I took that picture on our vacation.

Well, that's all for now! Hopefully I'll have some art for you sometime later... or more photography...
or both!

Sincerely,
Darrion

New Years Resolution // Look Up

"Get organized, read books, save more money, clean up your house, get healthy, and lose weight!"

   These are just a few of the most popular 'New Years Resolutions' that get thrown in our faces each time the end of December rolls around.

   Now, don't get me wrong, I think these resolutions are great! It's really cool to see people who can keep their goals for the year.

   And then there are the people like me, the ones who aren't too good at goals.

   But this year, I'm going to set just a few easy resolutions for 2015.

   The first would be to read through the New Testament again. Last time I got a bit bogged down with trying to go through the whole Bible in one year, so I'm going for the shorter one this time.

   Number two would be... look up. No, seriously, look up. Yes, I mean have a better relationship with God, but also to just look at the sky. I don't think we have as much appreciation for the giant piece of artwork directly above us, and the more I look up at it, the more I'm in awe of it. The clouds and their formation and colors are amazing, if you really look.

   My favorite time is just before (or during) sunset, and the sky is a pure blue as the part that boarders the earth is a light yellow, and the sun burns a orange glow. Also, the sunrise, with the rays of light creeping over the mountains and sparkling on the morning frost.

   Ah, beautiful.

   Not to mention... you know what they say, a red sun rises, blood has been spilled this night. Ironically, that actually happened two mornings after going to see the Battle of the Five Armies in theaters.

   Other than that, I don't have any more resolutions this year... thanks for reading! :)

Sincerely,

Darrion
