Just peeking in to say "good morning"

my son found this fawn over the weekend just off a trail at our campground... not the best pic, but didn't want to get too close and stress it out since it obviously noticed me

A classic movie! Who agrees?

In the words of Ferris Bueller,

“Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.”

Happy 40th to the quintessential Chicago movie and the character who inspired a generation to get out and explore the city.

Fun fact: 333 W. Wacker, seen here, appears in Ferris Bueller’s Day Off as the office building where Mr. Bueller works.

“I've found that there is always some beauty left -- in nature, sunshine, freedom, in yourself; these can all help you.”
― Anne Frank, The Diary of a Young Girl

As I was experiencing the heartbreaking Anne Frank exhibit today at the Griffin Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago, I was once again reminded of the power of photos. The amazing photos in this exhibit helped bring her story alive along with her powerful words forever captured in her diary.

You aren't allowed to take pictures in the exhibit, so here are just the few after the exhibit. May her words remind us to always look at the beauty around us.

So proud to be included in Shutter Odyssey Magazine 's Personal Favorites edition! This is truly one of my favorite photos from the spring with 3 of my favorite ladies in it! I can hear the giggles and feel the love when I see this photo and was so happy to capture this moment for them.
