Today as I was taking my photo for my 365 on film I noticed my reflection in the tv screen. I found the sunset light in the room quite fascinating and used my DSLR to try to capture this moment. While I often feel wrong or vain for taking self portraits I’m slowly learning andContinue reading “Self portrait—a (tv screen) reflection”

Along for the ride
I took this image from the passenger seat while in the car on the way home from a neurofeedback appointment. I cannot really put into words my experiences, the challenges and some victories as a result of participating in neurofeedback. Sometimes taking pictures on the way to and home from appointments helps me to copeContinue reading “Along for the ride”
Dryer lint dancing in the light
When one of my children emptied the dryer lint I was so fascinated by the lint particles as I saw them floating through the air highlighted by the sunlight, quickly got my camera and tried to see if I could capture the lint dust in the air. It was a helpful process to really noticeContinue reading “Dryer lint dancing in the light”
Half & half
Sometimes a variety of emotions can be experienced at the same time. There is room for multiple feelings at once. Sometimes there can be feelings that feel conflicted with one another and that’s ok, they’re all valid. I decided to share some of the photos and writing I’ve shared over on my Flickr account. IfContinue reading “Half & half”
Birds on a wire
Just a quick shot I took from the passenger seat on the way to a neurofeedback appointment as my husband was driving us down the highway. Watching the scenery and taking pictures while in the car can be a helpful way for me to cope. It can be challenging and I see that as partContinue reading “Birds on a wire”
Reflection
Standing under the bridge—which was busy with traffic—along the Iowa River at Terry Trueblood Recreation Area. Such a beautiful area to enjoy. I decided to share some of the photos and writing I’ve shared over on my Flickr account. If you’re interested in seeing more of those images you can check them out here.
Kids were here
One day at lunch my son had some chips and salsa. I was amused to see that he used part of a tortilla chip as a spoon rest for his salsa covered spoon. I was surprised he put that much thought and effort into keeping the table clean…and he didn’t even have to wash hisContinue reading “Kids were here”
. . . a l o n e . . . (one week later)
Today I just realized I took this picture exactly one week after the previous image—the same tree, different clouds, and leaves a different color, while riding in the car to the another neurofeedback appointment. I took this picture while riding in the car about 70 miles per hour down the highway (my husband was driving)Continue reading “. . . a l o n e . . . (one week later)”

I took this picture while riding in the car about 70 miles per hour down the highway (my husband was driving) on the way to a recent neurofeedback appointment. Sometimes I bring my camera and see what I can capture as a way to cope with my severe mental health struggles. This tree, all alone,Continue reading “. . . a l o n e . . .”
Kansas Turnpike bridge + dirty car windows
Just a quick shot I took as my husband was driving 75+ miles per hour down the Kansas Turnpike a few months ago. Taking photos while riding in the car is quite an interesting practice—you never know what you’ll get or how an image might turn out as you’re moving down the road. I findContinue reading “Kansas Turnpike bridge + dirty car windows”
