peggy.'s photostream
|

I'm the queen of clutter, and am quite disorganized... which you should see by my sets :) I really need to work on some of them that have changed over the years, but most of the stuff is properly sorted.
Too lazy to break out the tripod, almost all of my shots are handheld. I prefer to shoot what I see and not set up the shot or add special lighting. Available light, although difficult at times, is my favorite shooting condition, regardless of the challenge it presents.
What you'll find here is purely amateur photography, and that's fine with me. Occasionally I get a little artistic but for the most part, these pictures are just my life -- and whatever is going on in it and around me at the time. Yes, I love baseball and, when I can, take entirely too many pictures of it :) Flowers, sunsets and cats, too ... yikes, a Flickr nightmare!
My husband and I now reside in Menifee, California, where we moved in 2009. We had relocated to Palm Harbor, Florida, from Huntington Beach, California in September 2005. I am happy to be back on the West Coast, although my time in Florida was memorable and I have the pictures to prove it!

"Peggy's stream is full of so much diversity, and there is so much to see. Her images are a delight, and a source of wonder. I am so proud to call her a Flickr friend, and look forward to seeing her new postings. From her artwork to her photography, you will be amazed at her talent.
Take some time to go through her stream, you'll certainly be glad you did.

""I totally enjoy surfing Peggy's photostream on a regular basis.
She presents her pictures in a beautiful, carefully crafted manner with excellent commentary.

MIKECNY says:
"I love Peggy's photos because two of her favorite topics are also mine: Baseball and Jimmy Buffet! Her ability to capture both is greater than I could ever hope to achieve. More importantly, though, her photos are fun. You can see she truly enjoys life and any photo she posts has the ability to brighten spirits. I'm so glad that I've gotten a chance to consider her a friend."

Newell the Jewell says:
"I have appreciated Peggy’s photos for sometime now. Be it her frequent travels with her husband to exotic locals; her love of flora and butterflies; Florida Spring training with the Major and Minor League Baseball teams ( sorry darling, I can’t tell the difference :), or her experiments and expertise with the magic circles she creates from her beautiful photos. She’s a rare breed, Peggy. Both an exquisite photographer AND human being. Cheers!"

Special Angels Photography( Tumbleweed) says:
"I met Peggy here on Flickr even though she is a Floridian like myself. I can see through her photos that she is a fun loving type of gal and always right there to help you when you need her.
Peggy came to help me BIG time in the "Photos to Smile About"group when I need her the most and she has not stopped yet.
It is a great feeling to be able to call her my best friend...Love ya Peggy and keep on bringing those awesome photos..."22nd August, 2007

"Peggy has certainly posted lots of excellent photos to Flickr, and I have posted really great comments on some of her photos, as well as post some to my Favorites. For any groups she does have admin duties in, she is doing an excellent job in those groups, including the Pansies And Violas originally started by steph.A (Stephanie Allison). Peggy has even posted really great comments on my photos. :-)"

"Peggy is one of the loveliest, most genuine people I have met on Flickr. She started one of my favourite groups Literary Reference in Pictures which has a harmony and diversity that is quite unique.
Peggy's photographs give us an insight into her world, her delightful pets, her garden, beach and friends. Through pairing with quotes and poetry to make us think, to make us laugh or that leave us moved, her work has an extra dimension makes me look forward to all her new work.
I have particular reason to thank Peggy for her kindness in giving me a Pro account. Flickr has brought all sorts of new people into my life and I am very glad that Peggy is one of them."19th November, 2005

"Peggy takes incredible photographs of some of my favorite things (cats, flowers, sealife, bugs, the beach, and Southern California)! Her photos are incredibly colorful and portray a life of sun, sand and fun. I think I want her life! LOL! I love her eye for detail and her compositions are delightful. I can't wait to see what she puts up next!"
