My passion for photography began with my taking photographs of my pets, granddoggies and the cute puppies of my chihuahua breeder friends. I have since come to appreciate the beauty that surrounds us every day even more so since discovering the delights of macro photography. So much of the awesome photography here on Flickr has been of great inspiration to me. Thank you to all my wonderful Flickr friends and contacts who have supported and also inspired me. Thank you also to those of you who take the time to visit my photo stream.

 

Please do not be offended if you have added me as a contact and I do not add you back. I am trying to keep my contact numbers to a manageable level. I do try to return comments on photos of those visitors who comment on mine, whether or not they are a contact.

"You Raise Me Up" (sung by Josh Groban)

 

When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary;

When troubles come and my heart burdened be;

Then, I am still and wait here in the silence,

Until you come and sit awhile with me.

 

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;

You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;

I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;

You raise me up... To more than I can be...

May is a very lovely Flickr friend. Her photo stream is a true delight to view. I love her gorgeous flower macro shots as well as her beautiful Chihuahuas captures. I always admire the way in which she captures and presents her subjects. She is a very talented photographer and all her shots become an instant Fave for me as they also become a great inspiration. What I love about May also is that she takes time to look at one's photos and makes very sincere and heartwarming comments that always puts a huge smile on our faces. She is an awesome and sweet person who enjoys helping others in learning new things and shares that knowledge without hesitation. It is a great blessing knowing this wonderful and beautiful person with such a very loving heart and it is an honor having her as my friend.

Wow, what can I say about May that will equal the quality of her work?!?! May is a fabulous photographer as you can see from her stream. I absolutely adore her Pup shots. I've been so impressed with her and her work since I discovered her here on Flickr and she has become one of my favorite contacts. She's an amazing lady, very classy. I'm ecstatic that we have become friends here on Flickr and I very much value her opinion. She always has wonderful suggestions and notices the tiniest details that so many others seem to overlook. Given that she has much experience with drawing and painting, she is trained to notice these details of what would make a mediocre shot into something superb. May, you're such a doll and such a beautiful person. Thank you so much with all your input regarding my stream and especially my new venture into self-portraits, artistic nudes, and the like. I definitely have a lot to learn but having fun with it so far. You've made some valuable observations that most others haven't noticed and you are so RIGHT. Since you've had much experience in this regard and have made some great observations, I very much look to your opinion and critiques of what is aesthetically attractive. May, I adore you much. Thank you so much for being an inspiration for me as well as an aspiration !! You set phenomenal examples by your actions and observations.

Her work is incredible and I get excited when I see one of her new uploads. May's love for her pets is evident in her work and they are very lucky to have such a loving and caring person in their life.
