Sunrise!


I got a great shot of the sunrise this morning from my backyard. I had just strapped Julian in his carseat on my way to work and had to take this shot. The sun burst was successful this time. Glory to God. There is just something about nature that makes you feel surrounded by God. The Universe was created by an artistic and loving God. I love Him! Even though He is invisible to me He finds ways to show Himself in my everday life. One more day of the "sun" theme...

Have a good weekend.

Sun Burst!


Well, I have to admit that I was a little intimidated when I saw the theme for this week was "Sun". I groaned. I love seeing photographs of scenes with sun bursts in them and marvel at the photographers who can even pull them off in portraits. This is one of my goals: to work on portraits with incorporated sun bursts. The image above is my first attempt at this tricky photo ability. Hope to hear some good feedback on it, but we'll see. Two more days of "Sun". Can't wait to see what's next on the agenda. Until then...

Blessings, Karrie

Two for Tuesday!




Well, I failed to post my project photographs last week. I apologize. This week's project theme is "sun". I have to admit that I am a little intimidated by this. The photographs that have that beautiful light quality from the sun's rays are ones I covet. I am going to give it the " 'ole college try" as they say.


Today's post has two sun inspired photographs because I didn't post one for yesterday. So, the first is a picture I took yesterday of my cat, Francis. She was sun bathing in our front window. She is pretty kitty :) The second is a boring picture of what my living room looks like from my desk. The random toys and sippy cups on the floor and in front of the fireplace are just part of a normal day when Julian & I are home. It was taken when the sun shines the brightest through my front windows.


Thanks for checking in with Karrie Drake Photography.


Blessings, Karrie
