Steele Bayou near Eagle Lake



The trees of Steele Bayou are spectacular to me. They are absolutely majestic. I venture there quite often in the fall when there is plenty of color to reflect off the water. Such is the case with these two photos. Me and the cows that occupy the field next to the bayou have spent many an hour watching sunrises and sunsets at the bayou. Very peaceful place.

  2. Marty, these are amazing photographs! I found you from Janie's blog, and I am just awed. I love Vicksburg (my cousin is historian Gordon Cotton), and you have captured its beauty magnificently!

    I would love to put your blog on my blogroll if that's okay? I'd like to come back to visit.

    Here's wishing you all the best for 2009. May the Lord's richest blessings be yours!

  6. Hi Marty
    I also found you through Janie! Your photgraphs are amazing!

    I received a Nikon SLR camera as a Christmas present from my husband and I have so much to learn before I can use it well. Can you reccomned any good web sites or instructional photography blogs? What type of camera do you use?

    Looking forward to seeing more of your photgraphs!

  8. Hi, Marty, I'm bj and so glad to know you.
    I came over from Janie's and i am sooo glad I did.
    Oh, My...what lovely work you do. You are right in that everyone does not have a talent to see things the way you do. One of my favorites, so far, is the old car with the torn covering....I love that. And, the church bench with the paper fan....I love the different subjects you use.
    I will add you to my blogroll and be back often...will also introduce you on my blog, for what it might be worth.
    Have fun with your time with God...HE surely must be having fun with YOU.
