The Arboretum

The clouds parted and the sun shone through for a lovely walk through the arboretum.



With camera in hand I tried to capture the beauty around me.



The trickling water through the creek was soothing.



The air was cool and crisp.



Sprouts of green were abundant. And I couldn't seem to get enough.



It is hard to deny the existence of a higher being with such glorious gifts.

I am thankful for this opportunity to seek out and seize the burgeoning life through the lens of my camera.
