I have been interested in photography since I was a child, we always had cameras, my mom and dad were always taking pictures and I guess they passed that passion on to me. I am strictly an amateur, I have no desire to become a pro because I take pictures for the sheer joy and pleasure it gives me, it is my relaxation and my passion. My interest is wildlife photography and sunsets.

 

I keep my contact list under 100 because I value my contacts/friends and I comment every day on their photos, so if you make me a contact and I don't do the same please don't take it personally, if I have too many I won't have time to comment...my contacts and friends here are very important to me. If I comment on your photos all the time and I rarely get a comment from you I will take you off my contact list.

 

I am also a two time breast cancer survivor, I consider myself to be very lucky. So....I consider every day a gift to be appreciated and not taken for granted.

 

I am now pretty much retired so I have lots of time to be able to do what I love, capture wildilfe in it's element. I only hope everyone enjoys my photos as much as I enjoy taking them.

 

I have met some really wonderful people here on Flikr that have become good friends, that is what I love about flikr, I get to meet people who love photography as much as I do!

Paulette is not only one of THE most talented "wildlife" photographers you'll find on flickr, she's also one of the warmest, sweetest, kindest people on the planet!

One of the most sweetest, kindest and welcoming person I've met on flickr. Not only is Paulette a great person, but she also has a fun and entertaining photostream full of wonderfully beautiful images. She even has a stealth cam set-up at night and shares some awesome images of the night creatures she has visit her yard in search of some food, which I can guarentee you that one of Paulette's main priorities is to keep all her neighboring animals well fed and nurished. I've seen everything from, Dragonflies, bees, foxes, squirrels, birds of all kinds, rabbits, turtles, I mean I could go on and on with the variety of wildlife she photographs. Very much worth checking out her photostream. She has made smile, sometimes even laugh out loud with her fun descriptions that she puts in place to paint the scene or moment she captured and she has made me gasp in amazement at her beautifully taken photos. I'm very glad to of met this kindred spirit, thanks for sharing your stories along with your wonderful photos, Paulette.

I have known Paulette for about a year now and she is one of my closest Contacts as I consider her a good friend too! She really bonds with Nature and it shows in her photos. I can't believe she has Kritters eating right out of her hand! I'm jealous, Krittergirl, lol... I enjoy visiting her photo stream so much and look forward to see what antics she has written about with each new post. She is SO clever with her Titles and Descriptions matching each photo. Paulette has a BIG heart too making sure her backyard of many different kinds of Kritters get fed on a daily basis. They just LOVE her for that and it most certainly shows in the photos she takes... Paulette....you are such a wonderful human being as well as a terrific photographer!!! I will always be a huge fan!!!:)xoxox

So thanks Paulette,for being exactly who you are.You are loved!~Roberta

I dont think you can find someone that has a better suited name than Paulette has, Krittergirl. She manages to get pictures of animals and birds that us other nature lovers can only dream of. Her pictures motivate me to get out and try to "keep up." Pictures aside, Paulette is one of the nicest, most honest people on Flickr and a great friend to have. My only complaint is that my three year old likes her pictures better than mine and is constantly asking to see the funny chipmunks.
