I returned to Flckr two years ago (Nov 22, 2022) after nearly a year and a half absence (health stuff), and started over. Silly me, I cancelled my original site, but have greatly enjoyed reacquainting with old friends and making many new friends. I'm a person in the November of life trekking God's little green orb with camera in hand. Nature tells a wonderful story and points unerringly to its Creator. Though very much a self-taught (with many YouTube videos guiding me) amateur photographer, I strive to offer an artistic yet realistic view of God's creative genius and his love of beauty. (Psalm 8:3-4)

And thank you for your kind "welcome back", faves, helpful and encouraging comments, and for following my work. To me Flickr's greatest benefit comes through interaction with other photographers whose skill and artistry have helped to inspire and improve mine. Best wishes to each of you!
