Carrying a camera in my pocket and discovering the fun of documenting life through the lens opened a whole new world to me. My camera has become my friend and almost constant companion. It helps me to slow down, see the world in a different way and be more appreciative of the wonders all around me.

One of my favorite things is to take the camera and go for a ride, my preference being dirt roads where I can stop whenever I see something interesting. Nature photography — owls and hawks, especially — interests me most. I love the challenge of finding a Great Horned Owl and taking a photo I can share with friends.
In 2006 I bought a Fuji digital point and shoot camera (to replace my large 35 mm camera with all its lenses) and took that little camera on a trip to Baja.
More recently I treated myself to a new camera and am feeling a bit overwhelmed by all its bells and whistles. My New Year's resolution is to learn how to use it and continue with my wonderful hobby.
Smile!
