Weekend at the 40

Well, this past weekend was a fun experience for me. I went down to southern Iowa (Lucas County) and had a camping excursion with my two sons and another guy from our church. We caught snakes, rode four wheelers and just had a fun time. Check out some of these photos...


Getting in the mud and just having a good time. Sometimes we all need to do that! I know I did. Check out these photos that I took that are a little more "pretty":

Here's another set of pictures, with the original first:

I really like taking photos of nature. I think if I weren't a pastor, that is probably what I would do for a living. When you take a good image and then add some easy filter effects with Photoshop, you can come up with some stunning photographs.
