Bush Babe had a fun idea this week... To share photos of reflections in our lives. This photo, for me, has always been sort of a favorite, mostly because it was one of those good ones that pops out at you when you're least expecting it. I was pretty much focused on taking pictures of some horses that were running by, like this photo, when I turned and took a few snapshots of this scene off to my side. Only later did I realized what a nice reflection there was in the pond.

Not only is this photo of a reflection, but it makes me reflect, personally, to a time when Mr. Blue Eyes and I worked at the resort pictured. We spent so much of our lives there for several years, it is still strange to think of it as only a memory now.

If you would like to play along, put up your own reflection-themed photo and hop on over to Bush Babe's site to sign up! And if you're like me -- living in a frozen, frigid, arctic tundra -- be sure to soak up some of her other lovely photos of Australia. They're what's getting me through the winter, I tell ya'!

Hello I ♥ Faces photo challenge fans! I'm happy to be back playing the game this week.

My subject matter for this week, in case you've never visited here before, is my husband, a.k.a. Mr. Blue Eyes. He was snowed in at a coworker's house last night and since I was lonely for him I decided to gaze at his whiskery mug for awhile and practice my photo editing skills. I ♥ this face a whole bunch.

My photography page has taken an absolute backseat to anything I've done here on my site for quite sometime, if not my life in general. However, in the interest of easing back into things photographically, I decided to get back on track with doing My Best Shot Monday, hosted over at Tracey's blog.

The kicker is this: She wants to know what we're finding in our own backyard today. Tracey, are you sure? Because what's going on in my backyard is quite literally blizzard conditions. And I have no inclination to go out there and take pictures of it, because the picture would basically be, well, white! Mother, may I stay indoors, please? ;)

Luckily I did go out and snap a few photos last week on a particularly magical frosty morning, so I will share one of those...

Good to be back, everyone! Can't wait to see what you all are posting today!
