“Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever... it remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything.” ~Aaron Siskind
I am a total newbie to photography. I received my DSLR in December of 2008 and each image I take is like an adventure in learning.
I love Flickr for the inspiration I get from all of the wonderful photographers and my interactions with my kind contacts...many whom I consider friends. I very much appreciate the visits, comments, notes and faves.
I am a mother of 3...ages 11, 3 and 1. So my Flickr time is often sporadic but the addiction is so great that I sometimes manage to visit a couple times a day. :)
Please don't be offended if I don't add you as a contact immediately. I try to keep up with all of my contacts & friends and as there are only so many hours in a day I have to be selective.

"This testimonial is long overdue my friend....
Kristi-
Each of one of your images displays so much thought and emotion. You have the perfect eye for color and choice of words. With each image I am left feeling grateful for the simple little things in life that I often overlook. I believe your beautiful images are a direct reflection of your personality, as it is equally as beautiful. It's been a privilege and pleasure crossing paths with you and I always look forward to your next image and thoughtful words.
Wishing you all the best in this coming year!
xo,
Jess"30th December, 2009

With her combination of dreamy images and thoughtful words, "Simple Effulgence's" shots are truly striking. They speak honestly... They speak of beauty... They speak of dreams... ...They speak of what it means to live."15th November, 2009

"Simply cannot wrap my brain around the fact that there are not hundreds of testimonials for Kristi yet!
Let me be the first..such an honor! When I stumbled into the world of "simple effulgence" my soul was a bit brighter that day and it continues to be content in Kristi's world. The way she sees life & light is an amazing gift and we are very blessed that she shares that with us. Life is beautiful and simple is gorgeous...she has proven that time and time again with her images. Her talent is among the best I have seen in the flickrverse. She creates beautiful art!
Thank you, Kristi, for inspiring my creative spirit...my soul!"3rd July, 2009
