I've recently stumbled onto Joy's photography through a group but have been hooked since I've found it. She has a unique way of "seeing" that captures the simplicity and essence of the subject.

Never were anyone's parents more prescient than Joy's were when they named her, for it is truly a Joy to know her. I have never been fortunate enough to meet her in real life, but I do consider her one of my best friends here on Flickr.

I have never been fortunate enough to meet her in real life, but I do consider her one of my best friends here on Flickr. Her photos show not only her incomparable creativity and technical prowess, but also her wonderful sense of humor and love of life, LOL, not to mention those luminescent blue eyes............!!!

Joy, girl...you are my nature guru. My husband always shows concern for me when I look at your photos. Poor man, all he hears is: *GASP* "Whoa." *sigh* "Wow! How?" Your eye for color, light, and Mama Nature is astounding. Inspirational. Uplifting. I'm glad to have found my way to you through the Sisters… Read more
