Mountain View Cemetery in Oakland, California

"To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:

A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;

A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;

A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;

A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;

A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;

A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;

A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace."                                                                                             Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

 

The Russian River Valley Fall of 2015

The Russian River Valley is one of my favorite places to photograph in the late Fall.  I was very fortunate to be able to go at the time the larger vineyards in the valley were at the height of Fall color.  God is so incredible, his beauty is unmatched.  This is a wonderful trip at any time of year.

The Shingletown Wild Horse Sanctuary 2015

The Shingletown Wild Horse Sanctuary is one of our favorite places to go.  What they do there is extremely worthwhile.  It is even more important nowadays seeing that we have had little rain which means there isn't much out there for 250 plus horses to eat.  So, they feed them daily and make sure they have enough water to drink.  They survive on the donations from people who share the love of one of God's most wonderful creatures.

Robin and I are blessed to be given the opportunities to walk amongst the wild horses and capture their magnificence.
