Hello all
Well its been a while . thought I would pop in and say hello to you all :)
Took this image this summer in Northern Indiana Amish country
liked the mood here so thought I would share today .
I have always been fascinated with Amish life
and have been to Amish country about four times before .
I had never seen an open buggy in that area before like this one
( usually you see the closed Box buggy's )
To me, coming from Los Angeles ,
this seemed to be something out of a time capsule
I stuck my camera out the car window
and snapped hoping I had captured what seemed so beautiful to me.
There was a town summer fair that day( or festival )
in their neighboring town ( called Middlebury )
and these Amish ladies seemed to be driving toward it in cheerfully. you could hear the clip clop clip clop the the horses hoofs on the pavement . For just a short while I found myself dreaming of what it would be like Amish ( my great Grandmother was ) .
It seems like such a simple life ( although I know its also alot of hard work )
They seemed to be enjoying the breeze and
the backs of their colorful Amish dresses billowed in the wind .
It was one of my favorite captures from that day
and I thought it deserved to be in my gallery so posting :)
Have missed you all. ( my oldest daughter got real sick last year and so I took some time off . she is doing much better now )
now need to take a look around here at all your amazing work
and see what I have been missing out on !
Take care,
((( Sending a Big hug your way )))
love, ♥ Kimmers
