The Willing Hand

Oct21

My beautiful and talented wife, Stacy, has two Etsy shops; Slumber Spun and The Willing Hand where she sells crocheted goods. She usually handles the photographing of her creations; but, occasionally, asks for my help. Here are some photos I took of a festive Christmas garland she made.

-Joel

An excellent wife who can find? She is far more precious than jewels. The heart of her husband trusts in her, and he will have no lack of gain. She does him good, and not harm, all the days of her life. She seeks wool and flax, and works with willing hands. She is like the ships of the merchant; she brings her food from afar. -Proverbs 31:10-31 ESV

Como Park Conservatory

Oct20

In 2010, I spent some time with my family at the Como Park Zoo & Conservatory in St. Paul, MN. The gardens of the Conservatory are a must for photographers looking to snap photos of beautiful flowers and vegetation. These were taken in the Sunken Garden within the Conservatory.
