Being creative has been my whole life. Having executed art in all forms, photography has always been my passion. With a camera I can express myself without boundaries. I can express my inner self that seems to be in hiding. All of you on Flickr know the real me more than anyone, even those closest to me.

Please feel free to give me your critiques and ideas. I've never felt that I have reached my peak potential so your words of help are important to me. My equipment are all dinosaurs, as my son puts it, but I'll make do until better comes along. Some day I would love to travel to other countries, especially Ireland, Scotland, Peru, France, Italy, Greece, England, and other places too, of course with a camera. Thank you all for being my contacts, objective eyes , commentaries and even testimonials. I appreciate you all and wish you all the best with your passions.

I'd like to add that I live with pain every moment of the day and exist on a small monthly disability amount. (Please don't feel sorry for me) because when I use the camera (borrowed from my son), a sense of euphoria comes over me and nothing else matters. Please forgive me if I don't answer right away because I do have problems understanding the groups and their rules that I would love to participate in. I'm still getting used to the internet. The work I did for over 30 years was as a graphics artist and then a computer graphics artist doing art work for customers using programs, not the internet, but now I finally have a chance to do what I want and that is freedom in itself.
