Welcome to the world through my eyes! I'm very fortunate that I've been an extremely visual person ever since I was a child, and when it comes to "childhood wonder" - I never grew up!

I like trying to give views of the things in your world that may be slightly different than you are used to. If I can make you say to yourself, "Hey, I never saw it like that before - that's neat!" - then I'll be happy.

I'm a birder and thus always looking for birds to capture with my camera, but to be truthful, I usually end up trying to photograph everything else that tends to "hold still" a little bit better for my camera. Unfortunately, birds tend to be very fidgety and "difficult subjects." ;-)

The photographers I admire the most are those who can make us see the tremendous beauty and wonder in the common everyday things we see in life.

I live in the beautiful Tennessee River Valley of northern Alabama, USA

Many thanks to all those who have visited and commented so generously on my photos. Your words of praise have given me inspiration, and seeing your beautiful photos have helped me learn.
