For many years, I was a point-and-shoot snap-shooter, then I studied Photography in college, bought my first 35mm, an Olympus OM1. I found work for the local newspaper and freelanced for a while. My life changed with work and children, and I found I had no time for photography, except for the occasional family pictures. Once the children and husband were gone, I started taking pictures once again. I bought a couple rolls of film and some batteries and went out shooting. I shot some terrible pictures. It made me realize that I had forgotten more than I learned. So I enrolled in the New York Institute of Photography home-study course. I relearned the basics at NYIP; it was just what I needed to get motivated to start shooting once again. With the advent of digital photography and the internet, I slowly began to renew my skills. I joined many online forums, some helpful, some just fun; but they all helped me to hone my skills as a photographer. I still belong to several forums, many of them specifically critique sites and have learned a great deal from other photographers about my style, composition, lighting, etc. My primary interest is in Nature Photography, but my interests vary from that genre as you will see in the pages to follow. This site is updated at least on a monthly basis. Please come back often. Thank you for taking the time to view my images and my site. It is appreciated greatly.
