Trinimusic2008's photostream
|
I was born in Trinidad and Tobago, but have lived in Canada for twice as many years as I have lived in Trinidad. I am now a proud Canadian, with strong Trini roots....... hence the Flickr name :)
I was bitten by the photography bug in August, 2008 and have had no training, apart from some tips given to me by my sister, Peggy. (Her screen name is peggyhr) The Sony is my second digital camera. I love taking photos of flowers, random things that catch my eye, landscapes, skies and citiscapes. Eventually I would like to learn to do portraits as well.
Thanks to my three children (Tricia, Arisa and Marcus) - now adults, who have supported me fully in this creative venture. It is one of my greatest joys now and I find it a perfect way to de-stress from my busy life. I thank those who have taken the time to comment on my pictures, especially those who have provided guidance, commented or faved them.
Special thanks to my sister Peggy, who inspired and encouraged me to take up photography as a hobby and to join Flickr, where i have met some wonderful, kind, funny and talented contacts, worldwide. It is enlightening to see that people globally share many of the same joys and trials - tending to their garden, weather, child-rearing, grand-children, world events. Thanks also to my sister, Ann, who regularly views my photostream and comments, even though she is not intrested in taking photos.
Thanks to so many caring flickr friends, especially Kevin, Bret, Ken, to whom I direct any questions that plague my understanding of the medium. Ottavia, my dear personal friend who has taken my introduction of her to flickr, as an important medium of creativity; and she has established a very loyal base of contacts from her homeland, to whom she relates her Canadian/Italian experiences.
Thanks to my group of close, caring contacts, who daily visit and offer advice, solace, and fun!! (including Larry, Carmen, Daisy, Guy, Bashir, Mamede,/Ana, Monica, Michael, Kevin, Eleni, Sue, Brenda, Steve, Zaq, Bram, Lonnie, billie, Greg, Tom, Vio , Blandina, Sasithorn, and so many more.....:) Hugs to each of you!!
This hobby makes me very happy!

You Are A Lily

You are a nurturer and all around natural therapist.
People see you as their rock. And they are able to depend on you.
You are a soothing influence. You can make people feel better with a few words.
Your caring has more of an impact than even you realize.
What Flower Are You?

"Trinimusic... her Flckr name alone is enough to grab me and put a humming melody into my ears. But that's not it.... wait till you see her photostream and take a trip to a variety of creative executions authored and directed only by noone else but JUDY.Even a box of toothpicks put a visual entertainment to me ..accentuated by a message re: social issues. Imagine that!!!!
Judy's photostream presents a gallery of beauty and creative channels designed for anyone who loves photography in its distinctive style. She has a palette of georgeous colors that create blinking flowers that perk up our days.. greeting us with smiles. She takes interest in anything that comes her way-daily encounters on the way to work, people, architecture, the weather, transport , shopping malls.. giving me the feeling of the loveliness she keeps and her heart. This loveliness finds its way out through the warm and lovely thoughts she expresses in her photos. What a lovely lady and that is Judy.
I am glad that I met her @ Flckr, she's a gem friend that shines in and out.. making her an Explore photographer.
Thanks for sharing your masterpieces and kepp on shooting.
WE ARE WHAT OUR THOUGHTS ARE!
Cheers,
Daisy"22nd April, 2009

"Wow. That's the word that creeps up over and over when I look at Judy's amazingly original photographic take on her world.
I am so proud to come from such an artistic family as ours... my mother was always the one to support and appreciate our artistic endeavours, and I think it's so great that photography allows us kids the pleasure of supporting and appreciating our mother's unique POV.
Keep up the good work. There is no telling how far you will take this newly discovered talent. We're rooting for you!

"I greatly admire Judy's work and strive to create images that reflect what I have learned from viewing her work. She has always been so generous with her comments and feedback that she has given me about my own.” “Thank you very much.”"
Judy’s photostream is a perfect example of what makes Flickr one of the most addictive sites on the World Wide Web: a wonderful combination of beautiful subject matter, wildlife, floral, macros, interesting insights and fantastic creativity all held together by unquestionable photographic skill. If you like looking at great images, then this is the place to begin..."
Judy is also one of the most generous contacts of mine with her plentiful supply of comments and awards on my work."13th November, 2008

"Jude, I am so proud of you, my younger sister; you have done a marvelous job in expressing your artistic capabilities and the love you have in you for life. Thank you for sharing yourself with those of us who are not so inclined, I see the world differently through your eyes. Peggy is an artist, I expect it from her; but you, this is just awesome, I really love your work. I may not check it every day, but I check it often enough to be able to comment on those pictures that touch my heart and my spirit. Love you much, keep up the good work. Ann."

"Trinimusic2008 is a natural artist, a great friend and a wonderful mother. Those of us who know her personally can see that the vibrancy and beauty visible in her photography is a true reflection of her as a person. I am impressed with her work on a daily basis (especially when considering she started two months ago!) Her creative juices, long dormant, are now definitely flowing. She has an amazing eye for composition and the ability to see beauty in the ordinary. Her work brings so much pleasure not only to her, but to all of us who view it. Every waking moment has now become a potential opportunity for photography. I’m so happy that she has found this new passion and is sharing it with us."

"It is such a pleasure to watch Judy's rapid growth in her enthusiastic approach to digital photography. She is rapidly discovering how to view her everday world through her camera's lens. Much more than that, as her photostream is demonstrating, she is discovering her own artistic talents that have been suppressed due to her amazingly busy family and work orientated lifestyle. Bravo, Judes! I can't wait to see where this new venue of discovery will next lead you. I have used the word "discovery" several times in this testimonial because I think this is the essence of her photographic journey."
