2014 Through My Lens

I had been doing a Christmas newsletter/yearly recap for almost a decade, but the last couple of years I just haven't been motivated to do one.  I think that I just have so much going on that the thought of summarizing seems like too much work!  This year, I've decided to do a pseudo-recap of 2014 through photographs that I've taken during my adventures.  No recognizable people in them, just a few of my favorite photo compositions throughout the months.  Click on the first pic to click through as a slide show.  Here's to a happy and prosperous 2015!  Enjoy!!

  1. This is an amazing collection of photos, Karen. (The cathedral is my favorite.) I'm sorry I haven't been back to your blog sooner, but I'm glad I came back today. I still remember our ride a few years ago, and your wise words that day. Thanks for sharing your perspective.

    1. Shannon, thank YOU for visiting and prompting me to return to your blog. You're such a great writer and I thoroughly enjoy your posts. Your post on offending people pretty much sums up my sporadic participation in my own blog. I hope our paths cross again someday :-)
