naturelover2007's photostream
|
My photos are all original i.e. NOT altered by Photoshop or other software. I may crop a photo or do a minor edit e.g. remove something that distracts from the main subject, or lighten the photo for better viewing.
I especially like the challenge of capturing birds in flight. I also enjoy capturing a humorous pose or behaviour that can make us smile.
I taught high school geography for 10 years, then opened my own collectable/gift shop. Photography was always a hobby but with raising my two sons and running my business, I did not have much time for it.
Now that my sons are grown and we have digital photography, I have become obsessed with my nature walks and photography. I am very much enjoying sharing my photos with my Flickr friends and for viewing so many wonderful photos taken by others.
As my Flickr name suggests, I am most interested in nature and all its wonderful aspects, whether it be animals, plants, weather, scenery, etc.
Thanks for taking the time to read this and for viewing my photos.

"Naturelover2007 (Pat) photostream is amazing! Her love for nature and photography clearly shows in her work. She catches birds in flight so perfectly, something I hope to learn to do just as well one day! I love her photostream & getting to see her world through her photos. Keep up the awesome work! :)"

"I can not believe Pat doesn't already have a whole page of testimonials. Her bird photos are so amazing. They blow me away every time. She has managed to master birds in flight and she does it perfectly every time. If you haven't taken time to look through her stream, treat yourself and spend some time there. She is also very quick to comment and encourage others. I look forward to seeing what she posts next. It is always a pleasure."
