Doberdad's photostream
|
On the downside slope of life now, but I love to laugh, and have fun. I'm a Christian, a family man, and a novice to photography, and until a couple of years ago, spent my time admiring other peoples' photos. Now I have a totally different outlook on life and the world around me simply by looking at it through my viewfinder. God, Flickr, and the wonderful people on this site have helped open my eyes to the beauty that is all around me---beauty can be found everywhere if we just take the time to look for it, then at it. My favorite things to photograph are things in nature---from the smallest ant to the largest tree--nature has always fascinated me and always will.
I welcome any and all criticism of my photos. I know that I still have many many things to learn, and what better place to learn than right here?
If you leave a comment on any of my photos, I will most likely check your photos out also, and leave comments in return.
