Frost


Frost is a delicate element of nature.  The simplicity and harmony of the frost that morning brought a calm and stillness to the morning.   

Winter Wonderland


 Although I do not wish for winter to be upon anyone soon I think I may have felt like editing these photos because in Austin it has been a steady 90+ degrees with humidity.  So some days I miss (In SMALL doses) the chill of a Montana day.  Winter is a beautiful time in Montana.  On this particular morning I can remember the clouds settling really low in the morning and then as soon as the sun started to come over the valley it cleared up the clouds and left a beautiful dusting of frost upon everything - it was truly a winter wonderland.

Spring Time in Austin


Summer is in full swing in Austin for this Montana native.  We've reached 90+ degree days and it doesn't look like its turning cold any time soon.  With the warm weather comes a variety of different blooming plants.  This particular tree was found on Austin's State Capitol lawn.  This picture was actually taken in the middle of March.  I am glad to report that there is an actual spring time in the south!
