I’ve been a Biblical Christian for 10 years and been involved with the church for about 15 and I still get excited when a person obeys the gospel. Today, Nolan Tewell gave me a great subject to photograph when he was immersed in water for the forgiveness of his sins to receive the gift of […]

Grateful 365 Day Twenty-seven
Despite the fact that the weather in Billings has been anything but nice, we will eventually see summer. To help keep the kids’ attitudes positive and to provide some much needed relief when the heat finally does come, we purchased a glorified kiddie pool today. Of course, with any pool, one needs to have goggles […]
Grateful 365 Day Twenty-six
The subject of today’s Grateful photo are the flowers that grow in front of our house. These particular flowers have quite a history behind them, beginning with my wife, Sue, when she planted them in her Mom’s garden when Sue was 14. To tell the rest of the story, I now turn it over to […]
Grateful Day Twenty-five
My nephew, Jory, turned 7 today and during sugar-fueled frenzy I was able to get the kids to sit together and “pose” for a few pictures. It was fun having all the kids together; we don’t do it enough and I know they enjoyed it. ISO 200, 55 mm, f/10, 1/125 sec
Grateful 365 Day Twenty-four
I stopped along the rims today to make some photos of the snow-capped Beartooth Mountains before the snow melted and while walking to the edge of the rimrocks I saw this flower growing out of the sandstone. It reminded me of just how amazing the creation all around us is and how it is obvious […]
Panoramic of Beartooth Mountains from Billings Rims
I was driving from downtown to the heights today along airport road in awe of the beauty of the Beartooth Mountains and I took the opportunity to stop and make some photos. This one in particular is actually quite a bit wider than anyone would really have a use for, but it was a fun […]
Grateful 365 Day Twenty-three
My youngest son, Gannon, is very creative and perceptive and he has noticed that I have been taking a lot more photos lately so he decided that he should make something for me to photograph. His creation, seen below, is an airplane that was technically complete this morning, but continued to grow throughout the day. […]
Grateful 365 Day Twenty-two
I still have the first camera that I got as a birthday present when I was probably 12 or 13. It is a 35mm Kodak point and shoot that my Mom and I picked out at a store in Miles City and my kids still play with it to this day. Granted, it doesn’t have […]
Grateful 365 Day Twenty-one
If you’ve paid attention at all to the news around the Billings area in the last 3-4 weeks you know that we are in the midst of one of the rainiest seasons on record. Memorial Day weekend was no exception and it pretty much rained every day with only a couple hours of partial sunlight […]
Grateful 365 Day Twenty
Today’s photo is from the Sunday morning “Message of Reason” at assembly (church). The regular preacher, Luke Wilson, was out of town this morning, which provided the opportunity for Josh Kelly, another great preacher, to fill in. Josh is a very thoughtful preacher and his message was very encouraging. The title of his message was […]
