Healing Beauty of Nature

I am a photographer, caregiver, philosopher by nature and inclination, Nature has become my therapy; my passion; and my joy. I find Solace when things are challenging in life by immersing myself in the fluidity of Nature's everchanging beauty. I find joy in sharing that beauty with others.

Well hello there my dear deer!

These ladies were standing at the edge of a field of frozen snow. As I looked around a little more to see what they were both staring at, I found a flock of turkeys. I am so blessed to have this view from my deck.

Long ago on the Beach... with family

Long ago on the Beach… with family

The Day We Almost Got Swept Away at Long Beach Peninsula Happy crazy memories tickle my fancy as I look at this long forgotten photo recently scanned. Mom and Dad in the Station Wagon, and my sister and her hubby and kids in the other car. I would guess it was about 1962 or ’63, at Long Beach Peninsula in Washington State.

in Honor of the Fallen by Darlisa Black Via Flickr: Memorial Weekend is here again, and I remembered this photo from 7 years ago. Bagpiper Bill Shelton played at our local Memorial Day ceremony in May of 2015, in White Salmon, Washington. Located in the cemetery at the Walk of Honor, we had this view of Mount Hood. The ceremony was very beautiful.   This year the ceremony is Monday May 30th.  This image is copyrighted Darlisa Black, do not use without permission.
