I have just recently taken up photography. At the age of 63 my hands are old shaky, arthritic and worn, now I’m 72. It's hard to hold a paint brush. My artistic spirit can now continue to flourish with photos.

I have to always remember... when I look at my photos, always to have my glasses on. They look clearer and more focused. Laughing out loud. Getting older is a real trip.

Always a humble student of life. A breast cancer survivor of 15 years. My oldest daughter was not so lucky, she died from Ovarian cancer 2 days past her 27th birthday. Be thankful for your life and the years you have, some are not allowed as many...

Thank you for taking time out of your busy day to view my photos and leaving stars and comments. Flickr is a beautiful place. Everyone's photos, so much beauty. It is humbling. I am a beginner, a new student of this art form.

When I give a photo a star it means something in that photo has touched my soul, heart...something familiar that feels like home or a memory.

Peace & Love,

Nancy
