One of our favorite things to do when there is enough snow on the ground is to grab the xcountry skis and head out the front door. Steve and I were making our way to Bohn Park when we were stopped by a yellow caution tape??? Ignoring the tape we just ski on through. Within a minute we turned around to see hundreds of bikes riding through the snow straight toward us. What the heck was going on? Turns out CycloCross was in Lyons and we were in the middle of the course for the State Championships. No worries, we were well out of the way of the race course. What a fun and unexpected diversion. We only packed the point and shot camera but we still managed to get some cool shots. What an awesome little town we live in.
Here are some sneak peek pics of Baby Grace. I’ll have to find a new name for her as she isn’t really a baby anymore – she is turning into a beautiful little girl. Enjoy the pictures!
I love living in a small town. This past weekend was the Lyons Annual Christmas parade and fireworks show. I must say I am impressed with the show each year. First there is a light parade through town followed by a melodious choir singing carols and the show wraps up with a grand fireworks display. It was chilly out but the warmth of my neighbors made the temperature bearable. Below are some photos. I was using my new D300 and these were all taken sans flash at ISO 3200
Wow, I’ve been fighting a cold for 3 weeks now but am finally feeling better. I guess it’s that time of year. I am so excited. I got a chance to photograph Owen and Quincy yesterday with my new camera. I ordered a new Nikon D300 and it arrived this week on my birthday – what a perfect gift! I am adding children and pets to my portfolio and spent the morning with my neighbor here in Lyons. It was fun hanging out and watching Owen play with Quincy. I got some really cute pictures. Below are my favorite photos from the day. I’ll be adding more to the website later this week.
