Trees in Fog

I love this time of year, cool nights, warm days (sometimes) or foggy days, great for photos.

Photo Sunday, 8/16

In this time of being exposed so often to man’s inhumanity to man, and man’s inhumanity to nature, I thought I would share a couple photos of events that Mother Nature provided for us the last few days so we can remember who we are and our better nature. Be mindful of the beauty that Mother Nature provides for our soul. Thank you, Richard, Darren, George, and Peter. By sharing, you helped me find my balance. I hope it will help you all, too.
