There was a moist fog hanging in the air the other night when I noticed the sun was casting its orange light against the sky as it set in the distance. I grabbed the camera and the tripod and walked over to the bridge to take a few photos. While the sunset may not have [...]

The entry to the country store at Kimball Farm in Westford. I took this from the other side of the street and I could barely see over the snowbank on the side of the road. Still, I love the way the light came out in this and it just feels warm inside.
We had a great snow storm the other day that left the yard a winter wonderland for the kids. Happy Mom had a great playing with them and watching them have fun.
