Thanks so much for being here getting to know me a little bit better, I use this equipment to take my images:

The camera is a Nikon D5000. I have 2 types of lenses: Nikon DX 18-55 mm AF-S Nikkor 70-300 mm and when more light is required, I grab a Nikon Speedlight SB-600. Once in a while I take pictures with our little Canon PowerShot SD600. Cellulars are great tools: We used a lot: Samsung SGH T-929 and my latest LG Electronic MS690.

UPDATE I have a new lens: : AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-200mm f/3.5 6G ED VR II.


I am convinced textures are the oil and brush of this age and time.

The Gospel Message


If you are cold, tea will warm you. If you are too heated, it will cool you. If you are depressed, it will cheer you. If you are excited, it will calm you ~ Gladstone, 1865





The subject has to capture my interest somehow: the way the colors and shapes play off each other, or the patterns of light and shadow. I try to find poetry in banality ~ Robert Chunn


Still life with Strawberries for lunch

For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them ~ Mathew 18:20

Do not quench your inspiration and your imagination; do not become the slave of your model. ~Vincent Van Gogh




It is not the ship so much as the skillful sailing that assures the prosperous voyage ~ George William Curtis

Oh dear sister! You're so gentle even the birds are aware of your kindness

Follow your own passion and excitement. Shoot what excites you. If you can capture your own excitement, you just got a good image ~ Ken Rockwell

    "I originally thought Flickr was all about photography and photo art. I soon realized it was also about friendship. If you look through Nancy's photostream you will instantly see what a wonderful photographer and photo artist she is. Beneath that talented lady lies a beautiful, kind, caring soul. Nancy always finds time to leave meaningful comments and if you ever have a question she is so wiling to help. Your work and caring ways have always been an inspiration to me my friend. Thank you dear Nancy for your friendship and all you have taught me through our Flickr journey."

    "To talk about art and pure poetry and works full of deep feelings, where beauty is present with all its light is a difficult task. Why add words to express the obvious, is to go further without being able to express clearly: the work of Nancy is pure light. Her incredible technique of image's composition and her delightful texture work is outstanding. Much more impressive than our sensitivity can be achieved. Moreover, it is pure poetry in person, a very special friend, and I am very grateful to receive this, without even knowing how to speak about it."

    Occasionally someone comes along that just makes you stop take a look and say...WOW!! well. guess what this is true with Nancy (btw I call her Violeta because I really like this name) when I saw her first image I knew this was from someone who has a passion for what she does and again; guess what? that's what this is all about...having a passion for what we like and the rest comes naturally.

    Your gallery is a joy to browse and take time "savoring"...like visitin' a good ole friend where one is always welcomed and can visit enjoy your time and when ready to leave feel re-freshen....that is Nancy Violeta's photo stream; a pleasure to see for the eye but a total treat to the soul...so I hope you do take time to visit her gallery and get to know the beauty within her....

    To Violeta, you rock and your images are AMAZING!!!

    Greetings from a Texan

    "It's true that FRIENDSHIP is one of the most important part of a person's life. We may encounter lots of people daily but certainly we can't consider them as friends unless you will be able to meet them and know them in and out. In connection with this, I happened to bump up with this wonderful person named NANCY... I have known her through this site where photographers gathered and share their wonderful photos. I am so glad to have her as my best friend whom I can treasured a lot. A friendship that I won't trade for anything else... My partner Nancy is one of the kindest person i've ever met here in flickr, she always supported me in everything and even shared her time and advices at times I am depressed and down. My partner Nancy once told me that I am most likely her son, she treated me so nicely with respect, love and care. I even don't know how will I able to return all the good things she has done for me and saying thank you would never be enough and would never describe how thankful and grateful I was to have such WONDERFUL FRIENDSHIP. My friend Nancy, all I can say to you is that I am really HAPPY to be one of your good friends and I know you have lots of people around who cared and considered you as a good friend since not only me can say that you are a very wonderful person. I wish that people here in flickr would be somewhat like you...

    Have a nice day my dearest partner and HAPPY shooting all the time. God bless!

    Best friend,
    Mert"
