MY TAKE ON PHOTOGRAPHY

"The reason why we want to remember an image varies: Because we simply 'love it', or dislike it so intensely that it becomes compulsive, or because it has made us realize something about ourselves, or has brought about some slight change in us. Perhaps the reader can recall some image after seeing of which has never been quite the same."

"Grounds for Sculpture"

What a surprise! It was our wedding anniversary on the 11th and darling husband has been planning this surprise dinner and excursion for weeks.  Finally this past Saturday with much anticipation, I was totally pleased to find out that we arrived at "Grounds for Sculpture!"  I had never even heard of this place before and can't believe what an amazing and fabulous place it was both for my photography "hobby/obsession" and for just shear enjoyment and pleasure...Here are some of my favorite shots from the day :)

When we got there it was mid afternoon and we had the most wonderful weather, not to mention the leaves have been changing making it even that much more scenic.

    awww happy anniversary! Love the pictures, that looks like an awesome location to visit! And I am the same way about asking strangers to take our picture, so every picture with both my husband and I in it is a self-portrait :)
