Seeing that Myspace is getting laborsome when it comes to adding more photos and pages loading promptly, I now have more images posted on Flickr.com Please visit that site & see my additional work: http://www.flickr.com/photos/98899421@N00/sets/
Photography: Ansel Adams, Steiglitz, Gorman, Joyce Tenneson, Tom Cubbage & many many more!... I first became hooked on photography when I was 12 yrs old. My sis, Betty, gave me an Argus turquoise plastic box camera. The rest was history. I have been shooting with Canon cameras since the 70's, my first SLR was a Canon TLQLr. I use predominantly Canon digital equipment, the Canon Rebel Xti is my newest camera body. I shoot with Canon, Sigma & Tamron lenses. I collect old camera equipment. I've had 4 years of photography & digital imaging at Polk Community College in Winter Haven, FL. I was taught by friend & mentor, Prof. David Woods. This is my digital portfolio CD cover that I designed:
I do this for a living, you know! If interested in CD cover designs, let me know. I am eclectic in my scope of subject matter, from portraiture (in studio or environmental) to nature (macro & landscape)to modeling portfolio to Infrared. I also do photo restoration. I love & write POETRY: From Byron, Shelley, Poe, Tennyson...to Kavanaugh, Sylvia Plath...you see where this is going as well? Ecclectic in my love of poetry & the written word...Now let's see on that, hmmm: Hemingway, ANAIS NIN 8-), Shakespeare. Need I say more?
The changing of the seasons. I love the beaches & lighthouses. I must say that I miss Florida as that's where most of my family & friends are...But I also miss the Gulf beaches & my own little part of the world...One of these days, I hope to own a winter condo at Ft Desoto Park area. It is one of the most clean & beautiful beaches in the world. Anyone for a beach hut?
Cool Slideshows This slide show is an afternoon at Mott Lake on the Ft Bragg property. We had great time fishing & having fun with Molly, our doberman. I used my new Canon Rebel XTi & Sigma 105mmDX f2.8 macro lense. Hope you enjoy the results. My favorite is the sunset backlit pic of Trish & Molly.

My dear Lord Byron; mad, bad and dangerous; Albert Einstein, Mother Theresa, Pope John Paul, Helen Keller, Hemingway, Anais Nin, Shakespeare, "the Bard"...At the present time that is not a reality, however perhaps in another lifetime, maybe? (Yes I believe that's a possibility!)...

I LOVE MUSIC, IT SOOTHES MY SOUL... I write, paint, meditate to music. I am ecclectic in my choice of music enjoying varied types & artists...Any New Age, World music, Celtic (my English/Irish roots dance a jig to this), Native American (my Cherokee blood dances around the fire). Easy listening & rock from the 60's (former closet "hippy chick" here) to present day. Hope you enjoy a little of what I listen to...
All the old tear jerkers from the 40's to the present. Can't think of a favorite as there's so many I could watch over and over. A couple of my favorites; and
Any PBS, Discovery Channel, National Geographic & TLC channel...Been a fan of all Law & Order, CSI's & ER for many years. Also big fan of Grey's Anatomy & am a Nip Tuck junkie! Christian can nip & tuck me any day! haha
Any self-help, poetry, table-top books with pretty pictures lol!!! I love Hemingway. I love Lord Byron's poetry. I think he knew how much peace could be found to be away from the roar of mindless chatter & deep within the peace of nature's solitude. To my myspace friend, Jannie, who confirms what I already knew, "solitude" is what we need when we need to heal.
Trish, Maris, Marisa & Mariah! On Tuesday 10/1/07 Trish finally was awarded her E6 Staff Sergeant promotion. She had passed the board over a year & half ago. I got to "pin" her. Very proud moment for me.
