I love the outdoors and it usually involves a horse, a camera, or both! There are so many things to see and do, so exploring is one of my favorite pasttimes. The camera has challenged me to look for interesting things we don't normally notice in our hurried world. I'm a hard-core animal lover. If an animal can be in my photo, I'm that much happier. Engineering occupies much of my time during the week and I balance that with my artistic side on the weekends. (Well, maybe it's just a little out of balance.)
