This was taken with 'night mode' outside of the Lowe's in Beaumont. Beautiful, yeah? Have I ever told you I love Autumn? ;-P

These colors made me so happy! Autumn is really such a fantastic season! <3

I couldn't decide which photo should be THE photo of the day today, so I included both of them. The one with Pop felt very 'Abbey Road' to me. Dunno quite why, but that is what screamed at me when I saw the end product.
Also, I love how--in the second shot--the blinds changed color a bit in the photograph. They are much more off-white in real life. And--of course--I love the Autumn trees in our yard!

On the way home from Bible Class, I realized that I hadn't taken my daily photo yet. I began to look around for something interesting. I took a few photos of the town's Christmas decorations, but they just didn't turn out right. Plus, it was sprinkling a bit. :( I turned in to a parking lot to try to get a better shot of the decorations, but then I saw the flag right next to the fire hall whipping in the wind. I've always been a huge fan of the American flag, so I took a few shots. Of the four that I took, this one ended up being the best one. I chose it cos of the composition--the way things lined up with each other. What is strange is that I never tried to do a good composition or anything. I just wanted to get a neat shot of the flag, but the tree in the background ended up 'shining' and it made the photograph more interesting.

Hey, am I talking too much? Oh--and I wonder how this shot would have turned out if I'd used the 'night' feature. Would the tree have showed up better?

It stayed foggy all day.  This photo was taken after noon!  There was such a nice symmetry/pattern to these foggy power lines!  Nature--even in the form of yucky weather--always fascinates me.  This photo was taken on the south side of Houston, by the way.

Snow White playing with a pine cone!

I'm really impressed by the two congregations in Silsbee.  Recently, they have been in talks to see if they can merge.  This morning, they--and I--worshiped together at the Southside congregation.  I met plenty of people whom I'd never met before today, several of whom are pictured below.  Don't they just look wholesome?
