Simply look with perceptive eyes at the world about you, and trust to your own reactions and convictions.
Ask yourself: "Does this subject move me to feel, think and dream? Can I visualize a print - my own personal statement of what I feel and want to convey - from the subject before me?

Testimonials (10)

Robert the Noid says:

"I do not think that I have yet to be compelled to write a testimonial about someone I have met on flickr. Leesa has changed that. Her work is stunning, her comments towards other's work kind, thoughtful, constructive and heartfelt. If it isn't the beautiful scenery that she shoots that prompts me to comment on her photos it is the insight she brings in a simple photograph of a piece of bacon. Leesa has a quote from Ansel Adams on her page, I believe that if it were that he could see her work he would be moved, as I am. Thank you Leesa."

"I've been in awe of Leesa's photography and vision for years. She has the ability to not only be in the right place at the right time, but to use her talent to take full advantage of the moment. Whether she's shooting cupcakes or grizzly bears, her photos are rarely dull, rarely something seen before, and never, ever, without interestingness!"

"I recently discovered Leesa's photos. Thankfully. She visited my photostream and I subsequently viewed her photos. She captures nature as it should be captured--as though you just rounded a corner and astounding beauty met your eyes for the first time."

"I have known Leesa for about a year now, and besides becoming a good friend to me, she is one AWESOME photographer! Many of her pictures that I have seen make me think I can walk right into them. Many times I sit here at my computer with my mouth agape, complete with spitle dangeling from my lip because I am so awestruck with her work.

Her creative eye shines through her work and has inspired and stirred me in many ways. Each one of her pictures truly tells a story that would fill a mountain of books.

I have heard it said that the best form of flattery is to copy someone, and so I am. Leesa has inspired me to the point that in the next few months I will be getting the SAME camera and lenses she currnelty has. I only hope that my work will be half as good as hers.

Keep up the great work, you are an insperation to us all, Leesa!

Signed,

kcinfocus"
