Dancing Moments Scranton St Paddys parade 2019

What a really fantastic time at the St Pats parade in Scranton PA this year (2019). Look forward to going again. As someone else said, this parade is a perfect mixture of comaraderie and shenanigans!

This video is a few brief moments of people just enjoying themselves and the parade and having fun.

Dance like no one is watching... or that you don't care that everyone is watching!

Reflections of Sunsets Mirrored in the Lake Below

Pictures of sunsets taken in summer of 2017 at my home in northeast PA. Just a few perfect opportunities when the lake was as still as could be, creating a beautiful mirror effect.

Creatures Spotted Over This Summer

This summer allowed me much time for hiking and during those quiet moments in the woods I'd run into quite a few of Nature's creatures.

A Special Moment

Recently one night I was walking out of work and a monarch swooped down on me & the other girl I was walking out with. Legend says butterflies are messengers from Heaven, that they are letting you know loved ones who have passed away haven't forgotten you. I don't know if it's true, but it's certainly a nice message to get.

This photo is owned by me but not copyrighted because I didn't actually take the picture. I just wanted to post for you to enjoy.

While taking these pictures, I wished so much to be able to ask the driver to stop the vehicle so I could take some better photos... unfortunately we were on Route 81 and not many safe places to do this. These are the results of taking pictures out of the window of a moving vehicle. They could have been better if I could have stopped and framed each one's composition in the viewfinder... but they still capture the awe and beauty that was before me, just waiting to be captured by my camera and then shared with all of you.

I am but a vessel, a vehicle to be used by Nature, to get beauty to those who may not always have the opportunity to get out and see it themselves with their own eyes... perhaps they are sick in bed and cannot go out at all, perhaps they work long hours to support their families and don't get out at times things like this happen... perhaps they just simply do not realize what they are missing out on and haven't yet taken the time to look around... all my photos are for them and all of you, everyone and anyone who appreciates something about them. Not everyone will get the same thing out of looking at each one... but everyone can get *something* that matters *to them*. All I ask is that you stop, look, and if you share, just please credit Monica A Lunn (copyright) for using them. I do not ask for financial compensation for the use of the photos on my blog... only that you credit me for seeing them in the first place and putting my energy into taking the shot and sharing it online. Perhaps one day I could make a few dollars exploring my passion, but right now that's not the case, and I still want my pictures shared, not forgotten.

Thank you for every single click, for every single comment, for every single share, for every single credit back to me. Thank you for sharing the story of my life with my pictures.

Enjoy.
