Darlene Bushue is a landscape and wildlife photographer from Allenspark, CO. For me, photography is more than a way of making memories - it is a means of preserving beautiful moments in my life and allowing others to go on a journey with me. I draw my inspiration from being in the mountains and internalize a saying I came across in my travels to the Canadian Rockies years ago, “Mountains bring peace to the people.” That inspiration is what drew me to Rocky Mountain National Park over four years ago now. Living just miles from the national park, I keep coming back to familiar places to discover fresh new angles and compositions, and I’m never sure exactly what I will come home with. Those familiar places or sometimes even everyday scenery can be transformed into something extraordinary under the right conditions. The greatest reward for me as a photographer is when a viewer connects with an image emotionally: when they say they wish they had been there to experience what they see and feel when they view my photographs. It is my pleasure to share these places and unique moments with you.

Dear Darlene, in addition to the photos published on Flickr I had the opportunity to admire your works on darlene-bushue.pixels.com/. Well, I must say that you are really a good photographer: I have rarely seen such a dense gallery of wonderful images, the result of a great photographic sensitivity. And referring to the "memo" you mentioned, «Life is a journey, not a destination», I must confess that being part of your beautiful journeys is truly enjoyable. Congratulations Darlene!

It is my pleasure to write this testimonial about Darlene .... as it is long overdue! See, Darlene has been one of my longest and most consistent contacts within the flickr community. It was clear very early on, that we had a lot in common - from our love for wildlife, the mountains, exploring new places, even our fear of heights - LOL. It was also clear to me that she had this amazing ability to not only take amazing photographs, but had such a knack for being able to express her feelings about her image within her narrative -- very thought-provoking and wonderful. I've had the pleasure to shoot with her as well and I can tell you that her and Mike (her husband) are truly warm, caring, and sharing kind of folk and we enjoyed it immensely! I'm sure that everyone that views her photostream know exactly what I'm talking about. She's truly a flickr gem!

Darlene is a real good friend, one of the best! In my opinion, her wildlife shots are among the finest on flickr, bar none. She gets shots of grizzlies and wolves, something I've not been able to do in two trips to Yellowstone, and I am jealous of her for that! Darlene's landscapes are wonderful as well, and I love to view them. A while back we had some kind of informal competition going on between us to see who could get shots posted into groups first. I must say I cannot keep up with you Darlene, so I'll just keep following you around : ) Thanks for helping to show God's gift of Nature, and thanks for being a friend. : )

Darlene has been such an inspiration in getting me and others motiviated to go out and shoot more everyday. I do know that my work has changed much just by watching some of the things to do. She has a true passion for photography and dont consider her work pictures but art. Darlene turned into an instant flickr friend and you will never regret staying behind her work. Hopefully some day I will be able to be fortunate enough to be able to capture half of what she has seen with her eyes and lense. Thanks Darlene for being an inspiration to me and others and sharing your art with the world..........Hadrian
