Well now...

After more than a year here on Flickr it is about time to revise my profile.

Started out for fun , which it still is , I became more and more fascinated with this hobby we all share here. The sharing part , that's what became more important to me as I learned so much from everything that I see here. All the amazing pictures from photographers all over the world. The Flickr community is an amazing one .. Thank You ! All my friends and contacts here. Without your support I still would be taking snapshots..

The inspiration I get here has taken me to where I am now. Still I consider myself as a beginner. Sometimes I get lucky to make a nice picture..most of the time not. There are only two horse silhouette pictures that I'm really happy with. More than a thousand did not make it to my stream , but are still in my computer. I guess I will never entirely quit doing them LoL.

Photography to me at this point is about having an idea and then wait for the right moment , when the light is right , and that situation is there. Flowers need to be in full bloom , the horses have to be in the fields.. Alway's on the look for that magical moment and then try and capture it is what it comes down to.

Hope you like what you see..

The Family Dog is such an incredible photographer. I am especially enamored with his sunset horse shots that are so gorgeous! He has been an awesome flickr friend and extremely supportive to my passions in wild horse preservation! I would give him information and website links for our mustang advocate sites here in the USA and he would take that ball and run with it. Snowballing he calls it. My wonderful friend and a sort of a partner in the wild horse movement, has dropped out of sight on flickr since just before Christmas, I am very worried. If anyone has info regarding his status, please let me know. I pray he is okay! artattackcat on flickr.com

He creates some of the most awesome images I have ever seen. Yet, he remains so modest. I don't think he even realizes how very talented he is.

Fam Dog gives me many reasons why It's nice to visit his photostream. It’s very colourful, and I don’t just mean his fashion sense, and his love for Barbie dolls, but it’s full of many different types of photos. Some from the great outdoors, others from the big screen, and times gone by. It’s very interesting, and neve… Read more

Fam Dog gives me many reasons why It's nice to visit his photostream. It’s very colourful, and I don’t just mean his fashion sense, and his love for Barbie dolls, but it’s full of many different types of photos. Some from the great outdoors, others from the big screen, and times gone by. It’s very interesting, and never boring…..He also has a great sense of humour, and makes me constantly smile, the crazy geezer. He sometimes even shocks me with some of his tastes, and as me bursting out with laughter, a great Flickr mate.
