This local hawk stopped here to devour a large crawfish it grabbed from a nearby stream.
A view from one of the benches I love to sit on when at Bernheim recharging myself.
A small green frog sits calmly on the surface hoping not to be seen. The frogs always have their eyes wide open for would-be predators.
A nest of young eagerly await the parents return with nourishment.
A hawk eyes me as I try to get closer for a better shot in the Great Prarie of Bernheim Forest, KY.
A mother goose raises up just long enough to add a few more feathers and straw for bedding.

Bernheim Forest is a fascinating outdoor getaway about a half hour's drive from my home. Nothing rejuvinates me like time spent in the outdoors and there is no other place I would rather be than Bernheim.
This is a wonderful walking/hiking trail at Natural Bridge State Park in Kentucky. It is a beautiful wilderness area with plenty of rock formations and beautiful views. A definite place to visit if coming to Kentucky or if you live in Kentucky and have never been here. This is close to the red River Gorge geological area which is another greta outdoors area.

I am 39 yrs of age. (Notice: People never say yrs old after about 37)
I was born in Kentucky and currently reside in the city of Elizabethtown. (yup, jut like the movie.) I have travelled extensively throughout my life and have seen many things. However once I began photography seriously I have found much more close to home. I love getting out and photographing just about anything I can. I am trying to shoot while remembering settings, proper composition, etc.
