During the first week of Covid-19 Quarantine, my good friend @EricSorenson and I couldn’t resist seeing what our city looked like with everything shut down. We set out on our bicycles and explored our new Ghost Town. We biked up and down major avenues as if we owned them. Avenues that would be impossible to bike down on a normal day. It was a unique and eerier feeling to see our city become so desolate.

There’s nothing quite like the first rays of morning as they kiss changing leaves of fall. I struggled to get to this point - I wanted nothing more than to head home on Friday night after a long first week back to teaching. Tears were shed as I drove three hours to my campsite, parked my car, ate a PB&J, and wrapped myself in several blankets before drifting off to a chilly sleep.

I woke up at 4AM to snag a parking spot at the trail head and started hiking; I sat on the summit of Mt. Jo wrapped in blankets to fight off the 24 degree morning. It was all worth it for this stunning view of the MacIntyre Range to start my hiking day!

We went to pumpkin patch!

Golden hour at 1,000 steps beach in Laguna Beach, California. Show on Portra 400 with the Pentax 6x7 and the 105mm f2.4. 

It always a good day to spend with friends.

Our dog Henry took awhile to get to know our Grandson Jack. Jack was very gentle and patiently waiting for Henry’s approval!! It finally happened!!❤️

FALL IS NEAR ? and we are definitely starting to feel it.

This morning Micah sat on the porch waiting on his Ganny and Papa to pick him up for church! His excitement for Jesus and church truly warms my heart! Y’all see the ? mic in his hand looking like he’s going to deliver the sermon?

Ho quasi l'età di Gesù..ma datemi un altalena e impazzisco?

Nothing says fall to me more than picking apples! So we headed to our local farm fresh market to pick some of our own! 

I took this when me and my daughter was hiking in the woods nearby our house outside Örebro, Sweden. She had a little can of soapbubbles in her pocket and began to blow some bubbles. I snapped it with my Pentax MX. The film I used was a Kodak portra 400.

While my partner and I are both January babies, we sureeee love the summertime! Here’s a photo of us enjoying the last bit of summer and soaking up that beautiful sunshine ☀️.  We spent a magical day at the Sooke Potholes and had the most perfect weather! On another note, I think my splashes were pretty amazing too! Like the title says, not a competition but I think the picture says it all ????.

It was my daughter’s first time apple picking so she was very excited. Most of the apples were on top of the trees so i picked her up to grab some. We could not stop laughing and luckily my sister was there to capture the moment, it was a very fun day and we cannot wait to go back! 

a holiday in Sardinia, my motherland.  friends, family, love, a dip in the most beautiful sea in the world.

Avis de canicule, si on retournait au lac de Tignes ? 

Finding little gems like these makes my soul happy ?  Mother Nature always producing the goods! Love visiting this beautiful little spot @ Cedar Creek, Samford, QLD 

It was in August After 18 hours when the colors are sweet.

My english spaniel was scared to swim and  my daughter was trying to reassure her.

A beautiful moment with my family near the nature.

I love it ?

If I could choose favorite sunset experience - this one would be it ?.

Nature teaches more than we think. Grounding and surrounding yourself with all of which nature has to offer established and replenishes your whole body’s energy force. By connection to the bioelectricity of the earth you connect to a deeper self and begin to channel higher vibrancy. Next time you find yourself outdoors take the time to acknowledge all of which surrounds you. The wood cracking under your feet, the fresh air travelling in your lungs, the colours, the wind and the birds. Start being mindful and present and realize how much more you could expand your perception just by changing and accommodating new ways of thinking and experiencing the now in a different manner.

This was my daughter’s first time on her roller skates and I just so happen to be behind them with my sons in the stroller. It was perfect and I liked how the image looked in black and white. They are inseparable. She is a daddy’s girl forever.
