Hello, I am a 59-year-old male who loves photography. Always loved taken pics, I just got my first DSLR about a year ago. So as of now I only have Kit lenses, I am slowly learning, I am a slow learner but trying my best with God's help to capture that perfect photo. lol... I love different kinds of photography, country pics, some city pics, landscape pics, flower pics, close ups, wildlife, pets and much more, I have mostly posted pics taking by older cameras. It is funny that some of my old pics I thought was half good are really bad, lol. I want to bring out the best of Gods Beauty out through the lens, I say every flower bloom is a smile from God and telling us he loves us. I want my photo to bring joy and happiness to those that sees them Also through the lens I want to capture a story in my photos. I am by far not a pro, just a hobby, I believe it is a God Given Passion that God has given me and so many others. I have always heard a photo is worth then more than a thousand words......I understand why more now than ever. I believe every photo is a Jewel, past and present. Sorry I post so many pictures in a set. Just hard for me to pic a couple out of a set to post. Most of my pictures are raw as in I do nothing to them in photo shop, light rooms or other programs. I am sure it shows in a lot of them, lol. Hope and pray that one day soon I can start learning how to use one of these programs. I just get frustrated because it is so hard for me to understand things and remember things that I do learn .. That is why My photography is so special to me even though I may not be the best. My photos are my expression that I see through the lens and makes me happy to share them with others in hopes it my put a smile on someone's heart. My photos are outlet for me and brings me joy when I capture that subject that brings out the beauty that you know that only came from our Lord Jesus. That is the real joy that I hope people can see in my photography. Thank you I like to add a BIG THANK to everyone who has viewed my photos, favorited my photos and commented on my photos, I really do appreciate it much, means a lot to me. I have a REQUEST, PLEASE SAY A PRAYER FOR ME, JUST FOUND OUT I HAVE PROSTRATE CANCER, IT IS A 6, THEY CAUGHT IT EARLY, ALL GLORY TO GOD.
