Sometimes you need to take some time out. Slow down. Catch the views along the way.
Because I work for a 24/7 news corporation, Patch, my work pace is very fast moving. When I go on walks in the Rollins Savanna Forest Preserve in Grayslake, I find peace. Quiet. A new perspective. Once I gave myself the freedom to slow down and look around, I saw a lot of beauty.
Here is my attempt to capture some of the gorgeous natural scenes I've stumbled across. Know that I am admittedly an amateur nature photographer. I am more of a writer, editor, collaborator and creator.
Enjoy the scenes! Let me know in the comments what you think.
