Moments from Redwood National Park.
Coast redwoods are the tallest trees on Earth, but their roots stay shallow and spread wide, interlocking with nearby trees for support. Fog provides much of their summer water.
A forest built on cooperation.

Showing you my church's Chrismon tree, w/items handmade in 1986. Decorated with only white & gold ornaments for Christian symbols & clear lights, for Christ's purity (white), majesty (gold), and eternal life (evergreen), using symbols like the fish, dove, or cross. 12/24/2025

Sleep is overrated anyway right? It’s 2:32am and I’m awake, why do people’s minds work overtime when they should be sleeping? Why?
Anyway, here’s an old photo taken at Llyn Padarn in Wales.
This is The Lone Tree.

'Malin Head'
Ireland most northern point, Malin Head, in County Donegal. Always stunning to stand on the edge of these cliffs, just taking in that beauty.

Just wrapped up an 11-day workshop here in Scotland, photographing some awesome foliage, woodland, and castles. Here's a small collection of images I managed to edit from my 14-day adventure photographing fall color in Colorado a couple of weeks ago.

does anyone know/remember the full story of the farmer who plowed and planted his fields in the spring and then told God he had done his part and for God to harvest the crops? (serious question)

You can’t support and celebrate mistreatment and cruelty towards your fellow human beings and follow Jesus at the same time.
They are diametrically opposed to one another.
You can follow cruelty or Jesus, but you can’t do both. You take Jesus’ name in vain when you try to.
