Late January sunset

Caught this late January sunset
cold winter winds in my face making my eyes water

Roadside Park  Acme Michigan

Cold Winter sunset

30 degrees with a 20 MPH wind in my face...
Sunset over Boardman Lake tonight

Moms Old Radio

This is an old Philco radio
Passed on to me from my Mom
I am told that my uncle had 2 of these beasts
and he would put one on each side
and listen to his favorite radio show

I heard it play many years ago and it might today

but the years have left the old wiring old and brittle, like me

So, I will just remember that awesome sound

Old radio shows and simpler times

Words from the Photographer

I am often asked the same questions so I have decided to answer them today
If you have other questions please email them to me and I will reply.

1)  Tomm why dont you enter contests ?
      >>  Simply because I have no chance of winning. I am competing against people who sit in front of a computer and manipulate their pictures and I refuse to do that.  After all of my eye surgery I cant sit in front of a computer and do that.  I like my pictures to look like what I saw. I am happy with my pictures and will continue to do what feels right to me.  I am not trying to compete or impress anyone.

2)   Tomm do you sell your pictures, do calendars, or postcards or prints?
       >>  No.  I dont have the space or resources to do so.  I appreciate your praise of my pictures.  I love hearing that you enjoy them or that they bring you a moment of peace or joy.  The pictures on my blog are shared freely.  If you want to contribute a few dollars to support my adventures, the information is at the bottom of each page, or you an email me at:   Tom@PeacefulExposuresPhotography.net  Thank You

3)  Why do you do this?
     >>>   I do this because it brings me peace.   it helps me keep grounded in a very stressful hurting world.  When i have my camera with me, i find people and places and things that remind me of Gods Beauty that is  all around us.  I have seen some amazing things, and met some incredible people along the way

Thank you all for coming along with me

Happy New Year

To all of the amazing people who have crossed my path this year
To all the people who check in here every week to see whats new
To the one who brought me coffee that cold snowy night
To the one who sent $4.67 to support my adventures last year

May 2018 be your best year ever
I wish you peace and joy
and success in what you seek
Thank you for being here with me
