Flickr: sprotbon (Bonnie)Back after a long absence!

Hello, my is Bonnie. I am happily married to a wonderful guy and have two children.I live in South Africa. I love to take photos-all the time! My Camera is an extension of my body. I am NOT a professional by any means, but do so enjoy photography. I love to capture moments and hold them frozen in that second of time. There is something infinitely fascinating to me that this is even possible! I love to share what I have seen and so if you have found my little spot on flickr, just remember, what you are looking at is as seen through my eyes. Nothing more or less. I appreciate the uniqueness of this wonderful hobby of mine and realize we all have different perspectives-we all look at life through many different angles and filters. I have a canon power shot S5IS 12x optimal zoom digital camera.I also have a Sony DSLR A200. (well technically its my hubby's, but I kinda stole it!)

I love to take photos of my children, but this space will be photos of my second love:nature. I love to be outdoors, amongst creation. What do I like to photograph? Flowers, (macro-shots mostly) insects, landscapes, water. I tend to shy away from inanimate objects and I don't seem to be very good at photographing people although it is something I am trying to work on.

PLEASE NOTE: ALL my images are COPYRIGHTED. They belong to me. I do not share so that someone can steal/sell or use my images in any way under any circumstances.
I don't mind if you post on your blog that you saw a nice photograph but then please give me credit or link to my flickr account.

I am a digital scrap booking designer.I create things from scratch using Photoshop. I have been doing this now for 3 years and love it. I sell what I create here: http:www.bonniesdesigngs.net.

I use my own textures and photographs in my digital work-often extracting things in PS. I also love to do my own digital art work and create "playful" fairy like scenes of my own photographs.

I have another account here:

in which I used to trade ATC's, but it's easier to have everything all in one place so if you know me or have traded with me before, this is where you will find all my new ATC's.

My other hobbies are many and varied...I like to dabble in many things: art journals, ATC's,card-making, pottery, painting, beading, collage, scrap booking, reading, writing, poetry, decoupage, gardening, sewing, and the list goes on.
