Thank you Erin for my new Icon!!! Love it!

I live in the USA, Staten Island, NY.

I am 53 years young, just getting my groove back as far as taking photos. Was away from this type of art for awhile. Create Stained Glass windows and suncatchers, which I will soon start as a part time business from home. I also foster kitties and own 3 cats, all that were only going to be fostered! You know how that happens, they steal your heart away!

I work full time as a Communications Supervisor for a Law Firm in NYC. I like to travel, have visited many US states, but favor the tropics. I go to St. Maarten every April to recharge my batteries.

My husband is an addicted fishermen, so I have to travel to a different state every other year to feed his addiction. Oh the horrors, not really, gives me the chance to visit lovely communities, get some awesome shots and meet great people. That feeds my addiction.

I live as close to the country as I can get without leaving the city area. There are over 110 acres of Parks behind my home. I am blessed to be able to catch some interesting images. We even had deer sightings in this area. First time in over 30 years. They may have swam over from NJ at low tide. Hope to catch shots of them.

I am new to digital and still a newbie on flickr. Have always done film, till 2007. I purchased my first digital (Panasonic DMC-FX07) and for the first few months could not get into it.

The Spring of 2008 got me out and about, then I found flickr.

Within a few days of posting the addiction to flickr kicked in high gear. Most of my photos are as is, raw, with no enhancement. I recently started using Picasa to enhance some photos, adding color or cropping. I sold some of my old 35mm equip. in 2008 and purchased a Nikon D300 and a Sigma AF 18-300mm lens. I plan on upgrading with more lenses after I test some of my old ones on the D300.

I am thankful for the contacts I have made on this site. They are encouraging and enjoyable. Comments like this: (I'm so glad you are going forward in your photography, but its not the camera completely, You have a definite talent. The only way to get good at something is to keep doing it!) are what it's all about .

There are so many thousands of photos uploaded every minute and I honored that you look at my photostream and/or even comment on my photo.

Thanks to all who take the time to visit, view or comment on my images. I am honored by the attention. I have grow as an artist with your help. After several years away from this format I was rusty. You all have inspired me!

Be well all, keep on adding all of these lovely images.
