Welcome and thank you for taking an interest in my photography. I'm an amateur /enthusiast photographer. I’m a wife, mother, MIL, and grandmother... I was born and raised in Northern California in the San Francisco Bay Area

 

I bought my first DSLR in January 2009. I’ve learned a lot since then. My photography interest are wildlife, landscapes and night photography, but will shoot anything that catches my eye.

 

I love seeing the world through the eyes of others and am learning to appreciate my own eyes in the process.

 

I enjoyed photography when I was in high school, I was in the yearbook class.Thank You very much for viewing my photos

 

My other interest are camping, fishing, crafts, I enjoy playing with my grand kids, shopping for others, shopping for new photo equipment..

 

I like to read books by Anne Rule (True Crime)

I like to listen to different music but really like Madonna & Cher

My favorite movie is Titanic

 

Thank you in advance if you choose to make me a contact or ask me to join a Group. I am looking for thoughtful Contacts who will actually stay in contact. please do not take it personally, If I don't add you as a contact, I cannot keep up as much as I'd like to with all my contacts. Thank you for understanding.

 

Also, if anyone here on Flickr who doesn't have a personalized buddy icon and no pictures or information on their account faves one of my pictures without making a comment, I will block them as will most active Flickr members as it's unclear what your intentions are.

It gives me great pleasure to write this testimonial for Shari. She is a multi-talented photographer. What do you mean by that you may ask? A multi-talented photographer is one that is able to capture a multitude of different subjects with skill. Not all photographers can do this... but Shari has this ability. I have not known Shari long.. but no matter.. One only has to view her images to tell what kind of talent level she has for this art form we call photography. I look forward to each and every image that she posts.. so I can be inspired by her ability to bring photography to the viewer that only she can. Like most photographers she has her own unique style and I like that... :-) I feel good about leaving you this testimonial Shari.. I only wish I would have done it much sooner..
