Nature Walk

Watch where you are going; when you stop, watch out for more.








"When one tugs at a single thing in nature; he finds it attached to the rest of the world."
John Muir

Winter Hike at Virgin River Narrows

Waterfall in still motion... rocks in snow caps... smoothly carved sandstones.
Water does its wonders.

On the frozen ground, where the hike begins.




The river is the trail.

A frozen waterfall.

The deeper one goes down the trail, the narrower and darker it becomes.

In wilderness I sense the miracle of life.




P.S. Thanks Steven for his company and support to my crazy act. Who on earth would enjoy hiking in icy cold water for hours in the midst of winter? Yet it was a perfect getaway.

Zion's beauty

"The tree which moves some to tears of joy is in the eyes of others only a green thing that stands in the way. Some see nature all ridicule and deformity . . . and some scarce see nature at all. But to the eyes of the man of imagination, nature is imagination itself."
William Blake

Kelly & Michael's wedding~ Lafayette


Love love love Kelly's getting-ready look.


It was a beautiful day. New Year's Eve too.
This sunset shot was taken at the second when kelly coincidentally bumped into someone she knew at the park. Thanks friend for creating this candid moment.


Featuring Michael's beloved antique collection!

The ceremony.




Michael, a photographer himself, broke the tradition and decided to create an unconventional first kiss shot.




A special surprise from Kelly to Michael... this guy is so lucky!

Some good times at the reception.



The new year kiss.

A new year and a new journey have begun at the same time. Congrats Kelly & Michael~
