It’s February 2, which means that it’s time for my monthly blog circle post! (I am so thrilled that the “Way I View” group decided to stick together for another year–these women never cease to amaze and inspire me!) Our theme for February was close-up portraiture. This one isn’t a stretch for me as I […]
