When the Light Beckons © 2017 Thousand Word Images by Dustin Abbott I was out for a one of my early morning walks to pray and take photos when I turned to my left and saw the most incredible light beckoning me. I simply couldn’t resist, so I chased the light to a place where […] [Read more...]

August 8, 2017 Lot 35 @ Fairmont

Lot 35 @ Fairmont © 2017 Thousand Word Images by Dustin Abbott I’m a pretty serious tea drinker.
