Wednesday, June 10, 2015. A visit with an Ebony Jewelwing Damselfly. We recently had a visitor at the water feature in our courtyard and, at first glance, I thought it was a butterfly. But upon closer inspection, I saw that it was a brightly-colored creature that resembled a dragonfly. To Google images and this website ( http:/ www.fcps.edu/islandcreek…/ecology/ebony jewelwing.htm. I discovered that he is an Ebony Jewelwing Damselfly. I determined that ours is a male because, according to the article abo...

Saturday, January 17, 2015. This is my Father’s world,. And to my list’ning ears. All nature sings, and round me rings. The music of the spheres. This is my Father’s world;. I rest me in the thought. Of rocks and trees, of skies and seas—. His hand the wonders wrought. Those beautiful words from one of my favorite hymns have been an inspiration to me as a photographer to look for and appreciate and try to capture God’s grace and beauty … whatever the season. God's grace can also be heard. T he flowers of...

Southern Lagniappe: February 2015
http://southernlagniappe.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, February 22, 2015. The beautiful historic town of Vicksburg, Mississippi, is a treasure trove of what I call “architectural art.” It's everywhere … in windows and doors, columns, statues and monuments, houses, both great and small, and churches. I have captured hundreds of pictures of these architectural wonders, and would like to share a few photos which I enhanced with Photoshop. I call this collection "Architectural Gold.". Bloom Fountain, with. Old Court House Museum in Background. The signs ...

Southern Lagniappe: April 2014
http://southernlagniappe.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Wednesday, April 30, 2014. Joy in the Morning. Glorious sunshine followed the storms, bringing "joy in the morning" in the form of a profusion of roses gracing the arbor on our path. They were so refreshing to see in the aftermath of the storms. I wish you joy in this day, especially those of you who were affected by the storms. May you feel God's presence beside you wherever this day may take you. Created by Southern Lady. Labels: Photos of Roses. Monday, April 28, 2014. A Visit with a Baby Mockingbird.

Wednesday, October 15, 2014. Although the foliage here in Mississippi hasn't started turning yet, there are a few signs along the roadsides heralding the arrival of Fall. I recently ventured off the beaten path in hopes of capturing some of those signs with my camera, and wasn't disappointed. Here are a few more pictures I captured of the fields and fence rows of the countryside around Vicksburg. Created by Southern Lady. Monday, October 13, 2014. Created by Southern Lady.

Southern Lagniappe: July 2014
http://southernlagniappe.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Monday, July 14, 2014. The Fate of the Mamie S. Barrett. About 17 miles downriver from Natchez, on the Louisiana side of the Mississippi River, the rusty, vine-covered hulk of an abandoned steamboat rests in the shade of an old cottonwood tree near the small community of Deer Park, Louisiana, just a few yards away from a cut-off of the river. It is truly a sight to behold, and when I saw it for the first time, it took my breath away. The “Mamie” was eventually moved to Vidalia, Louisiana Dock...She has r...

Tuesday, May 27, 2014. God is Great . We were about to eat lunch Sunday, and my husband asked my dad to say the blessing. As we reached for each others' hands and bowed our heads, a little voice quietly began . God is good, let us thank Him for our food. Amen.". Created by Southern Lady. Friday, May 23, 2014. I would also like to thank our servicemen and women who, as I write this, are risking their lives every day to keep America out of harm's way. May God protect them as they protect us, and bless ...
