Where emerald eyes are smiling
I spent the last week at the cottage. Just wanted to share some pictures.


Meet Sam, the turtle. He/she was a regular visitor while I was there.





Morning view from my dock. The mist was almost all gone by the time I took this picture



A beautiful butterfly. They were flocking around the daisies in our field.





Fallen hearts & wildflowers






Hope you enjoyed!

Great work Kass. Your photos are wonderful and that place looks so serene. I'd love to go there.

Your photos are gorgeous! I wish I had a cottage and scenery as nice as that.

Here is the main cottage. We replaced the deck last year and this was the final result. Great for having your morning coffee and breakfast.


I don't have a picture of the original cottage that my grandparents built back in 1930's. It's located to the right of the main cottage.

Here's a pic of the cabin by the lake. The pic below also includes a 'sketch' that I did which I framed and gave to me sister for her office (some of you have seen this one already). I'll be doing a black and white sketch for each building and making a cottage set.


Here's the dock and boat. Another great place to sit and watch the sun rise or set.

Hey Kass...All I see are Photobucket messages that your images are no longer there! You're such a good photographer, and I was really looking forward to seeing some fantastic pics too.

Thanks for the compliment Laurie. Don't know if these pics are 'fantastic', but here they are again:

Sam the turtle. Check out how the gold stripe goes right through his eye! I love natural details like that!



Morning mist.


Fallen hearts



Beautiful butterflies





My mom's a daisy lover and I'll be framing this one for her (and the butterfly/daisy above) for her birthday in July. I smudged the details in the background of the picture below to make it a little surreal

Wait until I take some photography courses, then I'll have some talent. Right now I just fool around until something looks right.
