I love photography and the unexpected visual results of how light transforms the photographic subject into a work of ART. I’m an amateur photographer with aspirations to spend many more hours doing what I love as I move towards retirement from my profession as a Librarian on the Sunshine Coast, QLD Australia.
I love to travel and have a variety of photographic subject interests including, flora and fauna, land and seascapes, people and our pet labrador Annie.
I’m also interested in knowledge management and exploring different methodologies for cataloguing and retrieving photographic collections.
I use a Nikon D80 camera and use 3 Nikon lenses (18-135mm, 70-300mm, Micro 105mm).
