Henceforth I shall decree : at least one person shall wear red at all times during a photo shoot. HASHTAGAMIRIGHT?
They carried corn kernels all the way from their home state, so because of these hotties we are still popping good ol’ Nebraska corn around here.

But in the right rays of the sun \ If you squint hard enough \ There can be only one like it.
“Home” by Delta Spirit

I have an extreme passion for my home and what resides here alongside of us. A few of these were taken on film, last shot of the roll when I realized I needed to reload before I left the house. A few of these were taken on digital, small grabs that caught my eye while I work from home and the kids aren’t here to fill the space. They span the last six months.
Sometimes I feel off kilter, anxious, or really empty as the sun goes down. Going for a sunset walk recharges and soothes me because I get out of my head and I stop thinking and I let my senses fill up with it all. Walking, hearing birds and my heart beat, feeling my feet hit the pavement, being surrounded by pink sky. The best time of day to be alive, in my opinion. I lose that option Fall – Winter, when it gets dark at dinner time, and I watch the day end from the window over the kitchen sink.
But (hallelujiah) now that the days stretch into bedtime we have this special extra block of time after dinner to enjoy the buttery sun. To avoid the grumps, to leech out another second of day before we sleep and start again.
