At this time of year we hear a lot about the year in review. I decided to create my own version of this.
It comes as no surprise that I choose to look back with photos, so here are twelve pictures, one per month.
I was thrilled last January to be able to capture this scene.It was postcard perfect.
God creates such amazing beauty and it is my privilege to photograph at least some of it.
March brought us some gorgeous sunrises.This is taken from my deck. With that kind of spectacular color,I didn't even mind the trees in the way.With each new sunrise,I think that God is saying,'I kept you through the night, now trust me with this day.'
Driving around the country roads in August and I was able to capture this scene.Not a perfect shot, but I still like it.
October brings a distinct change in seasons.The trees put on their fall finery. Each year the display is different and this past year, we did not have super color.Having said that,I still found some color.
A drive through the Pembina Valley is usually interesting,but on this day in November,I hit the jackpot.One Bald Eagle is fantastic, but to have nine of them circling in the sky, playing and calling, that was almost unbelievable.
December rolls around and with it the Christmas excitement and also the end of another year.
We certainly had a white Christmas,actually we had a blizzard on Christmas day.
So that was a quick look at the year 2016 through my eyes and the lens of my camera.
God has given me many blessing this year, for which I am very thankful.
I don't make New Year's resolutions, but the following are some worthy goals to strive for:
-Pray for someone else.

I had seen this old piano under a tree some time ago, but went back in February to capture yet another version of this.

Of course every month has some pretty sunsets, but this one taken in April really impressed me as being pretty.On the right hand side of the lake you can still see some ice.I'm sure it didn't last much longer, as the days started to warm up.
May,and it's time to get the gardens ready.My gardens consist of several pots of flowers.These Begonias were covered in blossoms when I bought them and they bloomed non-stop all summer.
Here is another pretty sunset captured in the month of June. I marvel at each scene like this, knowing that the same God who created this, also cares for me.
July brought our area some violent storms.On one of those occasions, these Mammatus clouds formed after the storm had passed.I think they are beautiful. Even during these violent storms,God kept us safes no lives were lost.

September and the sun is beginning to set earlier, so I have more chances to get sunset scenes like this.Most of you will recognize the lake as Lake Minniwasta,a favourite place for me to capture sunsets.
