'I started out taking a trip to Italy. It was my first time in Europe and I decided to buy a new camera with a long lens. Well that was the beginning of my photographic journey. I couldn't put the camera down! I loved taking the photos, looking at them in my computer, cropping them, playing with colors and tones, until the vision on the screen looked the way I saw it (and sometimes the way I would like to see it!). I came home, quickly upgraded my camera to a fancier DSLR and began learning everything I could! Years later and I am still learning and loving it just as much...maybe even more. I love taking photos of landscapes, capturing moments in portraits and macro photography. My signature photos are my water drop photo collection, which continues to grow and expand. I have recently ventured into even expanding into digital art combined with my photographs. I hope you enjoy my collection.'
