Although I’m new to the digital photography arena, I feel like I’ve finally found my voice for artistic expression. My recent unemployment has given me plenty of time to experiment and enjoy this new-found love. The learning curve has kept my mind from getting mushy and this new quest for beauty through the lens keeps me hopeful and happy.
My equipment is meager considering the current situation. But I’ve got a wish list that’s eagerly awaiting better times :)
My goal this year is to explore the world of macro photography by keeping a photo journal of blooms in my own garden. I hope some of my work can inspire you as I’m inspired by so many others on this site.
