  1. Today's small moment - When driving over the Mackinac Bridge, I love how the second tower appears perfectly framed within the first.

    On a cloudy day like this, it’s almost hard to believe we’re crossing a body of water at all—it feels higher than it is, with nothing but clouds and a faint glimpse of the horizon in view.

    I’ll never get tired of crossing the Mackinac Bridge, whether I’m heading north to the Upper Peninsula or south to the Lower Peninsula.

  5. Today's Small Moment - looking back on this day in 2023 when I was driving from Virginia to Michigan to bring dad to live with us. As always, I have to stop at one (or both) of the parks on either end of the Bridge. This shot is from the Colonial Michilimackinac Historic State Park in Mackinaw City in Michigan's Lower Peninsula.

    With the snow on the shoreline and the view through the trees, this is one of my favorite views of the Mighty Mac.

    This will be uploaded to my gallery at BeautifulSunPhotography.com soon.

  10. I’m going to try posting something every day. Not a New Year’s resolution exactly — more of an intention. A place to share gratitude, something beautiful or funny I noticed, and a small reminder to stay grounded when a lot feels heavy right now. Grieving my brother, and walking through my dad’s decline at 92, makes this feel important.

    For today, this photo is a double screen drive-in theater in Ohio that I used to pass on my way to and from Michigan. It is ~2 hours south of my nightly stay over in Ann Arbor, Michigan. I always stopped for a photo or two or three or more. The backdrop to this vintage drive-in was almost always dramatic clouds and skies.

  15. I have to admit I thought long and hard about including the 1st photo in this post as I look and felt so vulnerable but then I realised that I should because that’s the whole point.
    Vulnerable is exactly how I’m feeling and have been feeling for a good week and that feeling will be high up there until after my birthday on the 23rd of this month. Now that I’m exploring my feelings instead of ignoring them, I’m aware that I feel this way every year. My birthday has always been tied up with feelings of rejection, pain and loss. I can honestly say I haven’t had many birthdays at all that have been joyful but those years that were I hold very dear because they are so rare.
    I have decided to pick through all of the pain so that I can finally find peace, hopefully. As birthdays are supposed to be celebrations (so I’m told) I would like for this one to be the last painful one.
    This morning I found a bubble blower and I sat feeling extremely vulnerable and I blew bubbles. I connected with my always sad and confused inner child and let her feel peace. The chirping of the birds, the sun on her skin, the beauty of the bubbles in the sunshine and that magical popping sound. No pressure, no anything, just being exactly in the moment of beauty and wonder. I think allowing my inner child out is key to healing, she went through so much and deserves to feel joy, laughter and freedom to be her without judgement. I say without judgement because it’s something I’ve always done since I was a child and it’s stifled me as an adult.
    I have a week or so to figure out how but I’m going to try and let this birthday be one for my inner child, to see if I can help us to heal. #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #mentalhealthjourney #healing #healingfromtrauma #healingisaprocess #innerchild #innerchildtherapy #therapy #findingjoy #findingpeace #workinprogress

  16. Tonight’s #KitchenWitch tableau. We’re making classic coffee cake tonight. #FindingJoy tonight.

    What are you doing to find #joy tonight? Slip into my comments.

  17. Day Two of my quick watercolour and
    pen and ink sketches a day.
    As a wheelchair user, winter is a time of hibernation for
    me - it’s so difficult
    to navigate snowy and icy sidewalks and roads.
    I’ve decided that I will try and paint all the flowers from
    my summer garden
    Today, please enjoy my
    “Nasturtium Collage”

  18. I haven't found any monarch caterpillars yet this year (only spotted one adult so far) so I ordered some painted lady caterpillars to raise with my grandson. Most of them emerged yesterday and we had a magical time releasing them into the garden.

  19. Good morning. Could be a slow weekend here with the latest wave of newbies joining / activating accounts.

    Another photo of the Japanese Maple in my garden. I bought it as a sappling and its been a joy to watch it grow over the laat couple of years. The bright and rich burgandy coloured leaves and canopy shape are beautiful. I bought it as a reminder of a most glorious and beloved tree in my mother's garden. #Memories.

  20. Good afternoon. If only there was 'scratch n sniff' I could share more of this. The #perfume of #Christmas blossoming in my garden right on time.
