Thanks for showing them. :)

I love my amish neighbors. Its very grounding to be around them. And as an artist I find their pace and sense of time to be in line with mine. :) They take time to visit and just let things develop-- which is what has to be done in the creative process. I am sure many can relate, with all these creative ladies here!

What lovely photos, I am especially dazzled by the wagon load of pumpkins, the colors are so beautiful. I've admired your paintings before, but you are obviously also a wonderful photographer. Carry on!

I love your photos. I am very interested in the Amish and their way of life. I have always wanted to have a amish pen pal and to live near them. You are an amazing photographer!!
God Bless.

Sue,
you have such a keen eye for photography...I wish I did.
We have a community of Heuterrites which are an order much like the Menonnites & Amish except they do enjoy the bennifitts of electricity & autos. But they refer to us as the "English" and maintain a respectful distance. I have never asked if it is ok to photograph them.
Thanx for sharing your wonderful skill with us.

Sue,
Beautiful photos. My husband is from Akron, and when we are there, we often drive down your way -- such lovely country, and people!

The thing I always keep in mind when photographing Amish, since this subject often comes up, is I don't show faces- or enough of a face to be identified. I do the same when I paint. Also Amish don't want to 'pose' for photos. If you'd ask they'd always say no. There is a disctinction to them whether they pose or are jsut photographed. I always do it respectfully in that I am at a distance and not intruding and not 'in their face' so to speak. Amish children are SO cute but I don't feel right photographing the children faces even though i probably could. You can see by my photos they are more about the Amish in a landscape then photos of an Amish person, this way they are not singled out which is what they do not like. At least teh ones I've talked to anyways! :) In my are they are old order Amish and more conservative.

Thank you for your kind words!
we are getting to the time of year when the slant of the sun casts such a beautiful light on the fields. My favorite time of the year! I love, love, love to see the draft horses in the fields. To me that is an amazing sight.
