Hi, my name is Lesley, I'm 47 and I have been passionate about photography for about three years now. To me, seeing the world through the camera is like being given a sixth sense. I notice so much more - and it's not just limited to what I can see. It could be a smell that alerts me to a particular plant, or a sound introducing me to an animal. I thank my camera for waking me up!

I was tagged a while back by one of my contacts, somogyibarbara but never put it on my stream. Too shy. Don't mind it on my profile though, so here goes -
