Tag Archives: travel This year (well, technically it was last!) I wanted to keep my Christmas shopping to a minimum. I wanted to enjoy the season after the crazy year I had and not spend the majority of it fighting for parking spaces, waiting in lines and spending a fortune on holiday shopping. But of course, we still wanted to get something for our families. […]  I’m taking some artistic liberties with my interpretations of this month’s photography theme because my subjects are neither furry or friendly. But since it’s not everyday that I get to photograph wildlife in the bayous of Louisiana, I figured I’d share these from the recent swamp tour we took during our time in New Orleans. […]

Maddy! That is so cool! I am glad you could go on that awesome adventure. I loved looking at the alligators. Did they snap at you? I can’t wait to hear more about your trip! I am so thankful that you are able to live out your dreams and travel so much. What a joy!

Thanks for the tour, Maddy! It really did feel like I had a tour of the bayou through your photos. What a great capture of the croc slicing through the water; I hope you weren’t really that close and that it was captured with the help of a good zoom!

These are great! I love the turtles and gator sunning on the log!

Maddy, those are fantastic captures! I want to go to the bayou now (but I’m a little scared… haha!) The gator shots are excellent, but I think I like the turtles best.

What a great take on the theme. Amazing images Maddy, makes me just want to be there and have adventures !! Love all those little turtles, they look sweet, the gator is pretty scary ;)

Terrific photos. Many years ago we took a similar type tour. There is nothing like seeing those critters up close and personal.

L O V E. the composition of the gator with turtles on either side of it on the log is absolutely stunning. the sign and the wading gator are favorites. beautiful post. nice to get a view of the bayou : )

These are just beautiful lady! They make me want to get outside and take a nature walk!  Our California vacation came at such an odd time. We were in the middle of a small kitchen remodel that turned into a major one in the blink of an eye. Seriously, if you’ve never had to go through a remodel, it’s like opening up a can of worms – all the original plans were tossed […]

Hey lady, Just wanted to say I’m sorry about your Step Dad. Sending much love and happy thoughts your way. :)

Thank you, Elly!

I was so sorry to hear about your stepdad. I hope things are looking up now. But as always, your photos are gorgeous and it looks like it was a wonderful place to visit!

Great pictures! makes me want to visit!

I’m sorry about your stepdad’s diagnosis. I’m sure your family is under a lot of stress right now. Your photos are beautiful (as usual!). I’ve never been to California, but I am likely going to go once or twice this year for work. I’m looking forward to it.

I think the diagnosis comes as a major shock and you can’t help but experience a whirlwind of emotions. Everyone handles it differently, so we all had our own emotional process to go through, as well as our own opinions on how to fight this battle. But we are definitely on the other side. My step dad is responding well to treatement and things aren’t looking as bleak as they once did. I also think it’s helped us to appreciate the time we do get to spend together even more so. And how lucky that you’ll get to travel to Cali! I love it there. This is my second time (last time I went to San Diego) and every time, I feel like I could pack on my bags and move there immediately. I love the laid back mentality (I know that’s one thing East Coasters hate about CA) and I love how much time people spend outdoors: hiking, rollerblading, biking, surfing, shopping at the farmer’s market, beach bumming…I feel like they definitely lead a healthier lifestyle than we do here.

I don’t know how I have missed all of these gorgeous posts. They have been the perfect thing to read this morning. I have had a couple of very stressful days dealing with a work situation and this has been such a blessing. Your work always amazes me. I loved it from the very first time I ever laid eyes on it. And I love you too. I pray for your Dad every day. |
