Time to prepare for another show! This time, I plan to take entries down to the Kalamazoo Institute of Arts for the West Michigan Area Show. This will be a new one for me, as I really didn’t begin to enter “art shows” until last February. I heard it’s a large show with many entries…. Read More
Cheaper Than Therapy!
There was no school on Monday, so I decided to take a couple of hours with Alex and visit the pre-opening of the Butterflies are Blooming event at the Frederik Meijer Gardens. This is an annual favorite for the Niedzwiecki family (or at least a certain photographer who can’t get enough macro moments through the… Read More

Ahhh…SMILE. Winter is here!
