~Gatlinburg Snow Capped Mountains in Panorama~
There was a group of young girls who asked me to take their picture, so in turn I had my Canon Point & Shoot in my pocket and I asked them to take OUR picture!! Perfect!! :) ... Even with the Mountains as a backdrop!

What a beautiful site to see the Smokey Mountains covered lightly in snow! Craig and I had the opportunity to get a peek of these beautiful mountains at the end of December, when we took the trip with our Youth to the "Xtreme Conference" in Pigeon Forge. While they had their free afternoon in Pigeon Forge we took the opportunity to drive into Gatlinburg and wander around on the still snow covered streets of Gatlinburg.
Craig also agreed to take the Sky Lift up the mountain to get a better view! (Even though he was a little apprehensive at first... Wow, the things he agrees to do for me to capture that picture and "Stop that Moment in Time"!! Only one of the many reasons I Love this Man!! :) ... He's not so crazy about heights and not so crazy about enclosed spaces, just a by the way... )
However, I don't think he minded it so much once we got to the top... :) ...

As we made our way around Gatlinburg we also wandered into one of the little "villages" and came across another favorite memory maker for us!!
Because we spent three years in London I certainly couldn't resist capturing a few more images in the wonderful, original British Telephone Booth! Perfect! :) ... I'm sure some of these images that I took of this phone booth (there were several...) will turn up again!! (and very likely on my living room wall!) ...
What a fabulous "getaway", and we were long overdue for one!!

~Wow! What a 2010! ... ~
Wow...What a 2010! ... I think we probably all have a tendency to reflect on our year as we come to the close of it. For me personally, I look on the year as a very busy one. I am also excited to say that it was a year of beginnings and a year of endings. In January of 2010 God allowed me to kick off my new business under the name of Tina Wright Photography and He is allowing Craig & I to watch this business begin to grow. I cannot wait to see what 2011 has in store for us, and I cannot wait to focus my full attention on my business! I will be able to do this because it was also a "year of endings" for me. I am feeling great accomplishment in the fact that I finally finished my photography degree at Calhoun Community College this December! I keep saying that "I am Happy Dance Done!" ... :) ... this only means that I completed the "degree", it doesn't mean that I will ever stop learning more & more about the field of photography! God has given me such an OVERWHELMING passion for photography that only He could explain, and I can only look UP! All I can do is Praise Him for giving it to me, and for encircling me with my family and friends that have supported me along the way, and are supporting me in it! Wow GOD! Thank YOU! :) ...
(Thank You to my friend Marietta Crutcher for braving my family and taking this group picture for us! LOL! I used to try & do it with a tripod & timer~ it's SO much easier with Marietta's help! Once we grew to 4 Scotties that challenge became too much and Marietta is a photographer friend that was more than up for the challenge! Thank You Marietta! :)...)

As we are closing out ~2010~ we also had a wonderful surprise on Christmas Morning! A "Merry White Christmas" ... I wanted to include a few pictures from that morning as well!
I began this Blog in January with this verse: Romans 15:13 ... "May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit." I felt like God led me to use this verse as my "theme" verse, and I have carried this verse with me this year. It has encouraged me and I pray God allowed me to use it to encourage others with it, as I hid it in my own heart. This continues to be my prayer for you in "2011".
Thank you all for your love, your support and your encouragement! I am looking forward to capturing new memories in the New Year! and "Stopping New Moments in Time" !
Tina :) ...
