MAR6/11 and updated Mar22/17. I have an eStore! Well, 2 of them at this point. I would be honoured if you would check them out and let me know what you think. I have created collections of some of my best items that I have designed with my photoart. Specializing in home décor, ties, leggings, phone/computer cases. I'd be thrilled if you check me out and let me know what you think! www.zazzle.com/mbr/238992143267498554/collections

AND.....YOU CAN PUT YOUR OWN PICS ON SHIRTS, CUPS, IPAD CASES, MOUSEPADS, ETC ON MY SITE!

Thank you so much, my Flickr friends, for visiting my store. I know it must be you guys buying my stuff because I'm not really promoting my stores much elsewhere. Very happy you like some of my designs, and hope you enjoy putting your own photos and art on items in my upcoming DIY department.

May 26/10......I've stopped worrying about Explore and what it thinks about my shots.....as long as other photographers like some of them, and I find happiness in them.....that's enough. Thank you again for your wonderful feedback!

Oct2009.....HAD to add a note to express my sincere appreciation to everyone that has let me know one of my pics spoke to them in some way. Feedback from fellow Flickrites, talented photographers themselves, is important to me.......adds to my happiness quotient! I am deeply honoured that so many of the photographers whose photos I admire have likewise admired some of my photos. My heart to yours <3

Earliest entry to my Flickr diary:

Welcome to my Flickr page. I love Flickr....and can't believe how addictive it is. I only discovered it in mid-March08, & love to check what what everybody is doing, and explore (!) the world through photographs. I have met such nice people all around the world, and it seems so amazing that I can sit here in mid-Vancouver Island, BC and talk to people all over the US, England, New Zealand, Australia, Malaysia, Italy, Alaska, etc. (and I also enjoy my contacts from places not mentioned!) It is also fascinating how you can get an idea of a person through their photos.

Nov.2/08 Wow....I've been on Flickr for 8 months! It's such a part of my life now....I never would have believed I'd spend so much time on the computer. (and enjoy it so much). There are so many talented photographers out there, and mind-blowing photos and wonderful new friends. Being immersed in photography like this.....I see beauty everywhere, and am constantly framing pictures. ( more than I did pre-Flickr.) So....despite gobbling up a few days and even more nights.....Flickr has been a very positive addition to my life. Thanks Flickr, and all my Flickr friends!
