Just an amateur photographer....I like to take pictures of the things that are special to me...like my kids, my home, my garden...

I shoot with a Canon Xti.

I just use the plain old kit lens (18mm-55mm)

I recently added a 50mm 1.8 EF lens and I like it!

Sometimes I use an old manual Sigma Zoom (I have to hold it on because it won't fit)

I also love my little Argoflex Seventy-five

If I am in a pinch, I have a Nikon Coolpix!

I have a IPHONE 4s.

When I edit, I use Photoshop CS5 and Lightroom.

I administer the no flower challenge group
