A Fall leaf in the grass that illustrates the perfection of what God has created, to enjoy this beauty while on earth, in addition to His creating our lives. Although the leaf has flaws and scars, it still brings much beauty into the world for the short time of one season, just as our lives our short lived. www.frankjcasella.ipernity.com

One or Another - A stand-alone tree with Autumn leaves by a fence in the wooded preserve - Color Photograph Copyright 2013 Frank J Casella I’ve always been attracted by trees. The light and shadow play on the branches. The colors from the Fall Season. But deeper, the formations from their environment and the other trees around them .. Or not. Trees, very much like our lives, all have a life of their own. Each one is different in their own way, though they may be the same kind: Birch, Cedar, Oak. Some tree branches it seems are attracted towards the Light, while others it seems move one direction because of a branch or another tree forces them from another direction. There are many directions that we can go in life .. One or Another ... The choice is ours. "A good choice today will lead to a better tomorrow ... We have the power to choose ... Use ti wisely." -- Zig Ziglar "The stumbling block to the pessimist, is a stepping stone to the optimist." -- Eleanor Roosevelt. www.frankjcasella.ipernity.com

Chasing the golden hour sun, I found this morning light moment in my neighbors back yard. Many times, both in life and in photography, the best moments are where we're planted if we look for them. www,frankjcasella.ipernity.com
