Fall Colors, A Family Photo Walk

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with Ward County Notary Services

I'm back into the photo walk mode thanks to my son's new photography class. Timmothy is in his second year of college (majoring in Art) and this semester he has a photo class.

Ever since Tina and Timmothy could hold a camera I've made sure they each owned a good one but that spark did not really take off for Timmothy until this year. He rented a Canon EOS7 for the class and it's been a real challenge for him but he is enjoying the challenge.

Yesterday we walked through Oak Park in Minot ND and here are a few shots I took along the way.

I do enjoy this time of year for the sake of photography John Pusa but it also fills me with dread as I know we are always headed for a long North Dakota Winter.

Wendy Rulnick these may be my best Fall pictures and I wonder if it doesn't have something to do with our very dry summer. As for the deer they are very bountiful in the City limits of Minot. Aside from the river running through town we also have many coulees in town that are undevelopable. The deer are so bountiful they have proposed intown bow hunting to thin the heard. BTW I opposed it on the grounds that I would not want my kids finding a deer bleeding out in our backyard with an arrow stick in it.

Bob "RealMan" Timm I had to look up coulees! Never heard the term!  It's unbelievable you have that many deer wandering around!

James Dray I believe AR may have the perfect climate for me personally. I like the idea of four seasons with Winter not being 6 to 8 months long.

Michael Jacobs when you and I were kids photography was an expensive hobby considering the cost of film and developing it. Digital photography is such a blessing.

Thank you very much, Bob, for sharing these beautiful photographs. Is Timmothy on Facebook? I would love to see more of his work.

Photography can become a lifetime hobby.

Those are delightful pictures to remind us that Autumn is close at hand, Bob!  Our leaves haven't started to color quite yet, but I suspect it won't be long.

Good morning Bob. They say that timing is everything. And my time in the Rain does not seemingly coincide with yours. Had to search you out this morning. You now have me longing for a walk in the woods. Betting Timmothy does well in his class with a little encouragement from Dad! Enjoy your day.

Timmothy is on Facebook Roy Kelley but he is very inconsistant in posting anything and he usually does not post his art there.

I'm living in the wrong place Kathy Streib as I'd really prefer your temps as to ours HOWEVER I do enjoy the four seasons.

I hope I'm encouraging Timmothy Wayne Martin but as you know even well intended actions sometimes end up disastrously.

Thanks Dorte Engel , it was a really nice walk and I had another nice photo walk today as we have been having exceptional weather... in the 80's today, which is unheard of this time of year for us.
