Profile
Here at last: a beginner with a small cheap digital camera.
I may not have a great ‘eye’ for colour and composition but I enjoy ‘snapping, especially flowers and water fowl.
Why flowers?
They are beautiful, colourful… and stand pretty still!
Why water fowl? I love feeding the ducks at the local boating lake and when they are well fed they tend to hang around a while.
MaryMina is my User name: Mina being a childhood nickname, Mary referring to the Holy Mother.
I would love to be able to take photos to face spiritual writing. I have in mind to produce booklets of short meditations.
Advice and support would be most welcome. Thank you.
