After the Rain

Sunrise after rain

Morning dew upon the grass

Misty morning joy

After the rain fell

Blossoms appear to have wept

Not in sadness, joy

Springtime on the Ohio

It's been a wonderful weekend and as I was sitting at the computer I thought I'd just take some time to play with some photos!  Yesterday we took a walk to the river.  It was about 3:00 in the afternoon and the weather was incredible.  I got this photo as we were walking back home.   I'm not sure why, but there is a beautiful orb in the lower left.  Thought it was a problem with my camera or lens, but none of m other photos taken at that time have the same artifact.  At any rate, it was just the most wonderful day to walk!

So I took the above photo and thought I'd play with PicMonkey to see what I'd get.  Well, there is a new effect called Edge Sketch and the result is below.  That is the closest I will every get to "painting" an abstract picture.  And, it was fun!!

Along the way, I took some other photos of the Spring that has finally arrived here.  All of nature's most beautiful colors were on display!  Indeed, it was grand!

Thanks be to God!

Sunlight and Serenity

Quiet and serene

A single beam of sunlight

Gives rise to comfort

Quiet and serene

Basking in its warmth and glow

Gives rise to comfort
