I love photography, art and writing. I started out on one of those little 12 shot cameras and figured out I really wanted to learn more about photography. When I was about 17 I got my first 35mm, it was a cheap one a Kalimar. I had all kinds of lenses and filters and learned so much but I wanted a little nicer camera. After a few years of practice I got a Pentax K 1000 and had it for a year or so and had to sell it because of money problems in my family. That was a sad day for me but my family at the time was more important. A few years ago my husband got me an Olympus D 535 digital. I didn’t know what to do with it when I first got it and didn’t even have a computer at the time but I learned what I could and then I got my computer and that helped me so much more. I had that camera for about 3 years and my husband recently bought me a Kodak Z 1015. It is so amazing compared to the little Olympus that I had, so much to learn but is so exciting. I can’t wait now to get out there and see what it can really do. Well the Kodak messed up processing one day and I decided to take it back. It was too slow anyways. I ended up getting a Fuji S 2000 HD. I looked for a week before I made my decision and this camera is pretty awesome. It can do so much more than the Kodak and the picture quility is better too. I am glad I went this route.
There has been so much to learn as far as the computer and all the things you can do with all this stuff, it is so amazing.

Writing
God’s World
Too many buttered palms and backs scratched by others. / Too much hostility and God so many possibilities. / What is the solution to this pollution. / How about a conclusion to this confusion.
Fear
As I begin to make out the figure, / My eyes begin to tear. / Cold, clammy, no breath, heart beating… / I start to run and stumble in the clear.
Where is America
So many lost sheep, / We are asleep without a peep. / What happened to the red white and blue? / All for justice and how the eagle flew?
Believe in Yourself
Seen the fork in the road… / Too many times. / Oh again, I hear the chimes, / One, two, three, / Which way this time?
