While visiting my parents earlier this month (yes I tackled the 7+ hr road trip all by myself yet again) we were able to do a little more sight seeing. I took Z to the river spot where I grew up swimming during my summers. It was later in the day and I didn't think she'd want to get in the water, but I was wrong. The temperature doesn't matter to her - she's all in.
While she swam, splashed and played I also noticed the sun setting through the trees in the distance. I waited a little while and then captured the sun rays beaming through the trees.
Though Z loved the water she did eventually get cold and hungry so back to grandma's we went. As we were on the dirt road headed back to the highway, I had to pull over and capture the light coming through the Redwood trees. I won't be going home much in the future because my parents will be mainly living elsewhere, so I've tried to hold onto the memories of my childhood through photographs. I grew up in one of the most beautiful places and I want to remember that beauty. The redwood trees will always hold a special place in my heart.

Beautiful shots! My favorite are the sunbeams peaking through the trees!
You have an amazing talent. I want to pay you to take pictures of my family. Seriously, I want to get pictures for the holiday season. Let me know.
