I get a huge kick every time one of my shots makes Explore. I print the posters. I put them in my profile. I keep them and just generally get tickled every time I look at them. I know this makes me kind of a doofus to many folks but, it's an honor to me. So there. I admitted it. That should count for something, right? I am honest. Does that help?

77? Can I just say.....I wish there was a better word in my vocabulary for....Thank you? This old lady is wearing SUCH a big silly smile. :D

Groups I've Created and am Proud of. :D

Little bit about the ShutterBug Cafe'. This is group created purely for those people who's very days begin and end with photography. Photographers are a special breed of people. If you are blessed enough to meet and get to know them, they will change the very way you see the world. This group is kept to an intimate size though we never turn away a true lover of this art. Did I mention, I love the people in this group? ;D

A little bit about "The Love Shack". The Love Shack was intended originally to be very much like the Shutterbug is now. But we grew to such a large number that it became impossible to maintain that intimate feel....yet.....our members new and old somehow manage to find each other and to connect. It is a friendship based, goofy, group, of people who love the art of photography. And we learn and grow with each other every single day. The photo pool is wealth of inspiration for anyone hitting that old photographers mental block that we all sometimes get. And.....the discussion threads are always informative, if not hilarious.
