*** Hi all, Dearest Ones !! Lovely this meeting place, non?

*** Well... dear friends....I am basically a Nature and Animal Lover! But, ..I do love humans, too ! I am an extrovert, impulsive, enthusiastic person, and a born "green finger" . Therefore, born to be a gardener, which I have -- a garden that is -- and I call it "my external family " .!!

*** I am born in Greece, on the lovely island of Corfu near Italy , .

*** I love a lot writing and reading! Also, listening to Italian, French , and English music (read in detail below)! I am fond both of rock and classical music. I also like cooking light Greek and Italian kitchen for family and friends.

*** I used to be a Secondary Education teacher of the English Language/Literature in my country and I really loved my profession, because I love children very much! I have 3 lovely children, 32, 28, and 13 years old, *** I have been living in Belgium/Waterloo during the last 12-13 years, and I love and respect this country with the lovely people, like the country of my origin!

*** Photography for me is equally creative,fulfilling, and artistic like gardening! Therefore, I am madly in love with Nature Photography in all the Human/Animal /Plant Kingdoms!!

Brian Wayfarer says:

"Visitar la galería de LizasGarden constituye todo un placer visual y apacible.
Lizas Papavramides, desarrolla todo su arte entorno a la naturaleza: las flores, los lagos, los animales, la familia... en ese microcosmos que le da un sentido universal a toda su obra.
Es una mujer culta y muy elegante y eso lo deducimos del equilibrio de sus fotos, el color exacto sin llegar a ser exagerado, pero con un brillo y un tratamiento excepcionales.
Tenerla de contacto y amiga en estas galerías virtuales, es todo un honor y una alegría.
Una de las artistas más interesantes de Flickr.
Un cordial abrazo."

"Liza's garden is without question my favorite place to visit on Flickr and I am so happy that I have had the chance to meet her in person here in Minnesota. Her pictures are gorgeous and so is her spirit! Many of my days have been brightened by her pictures that I put on my computer desktop, so I can look into them and imagine I am there. Thank you!"

"Liza is a sweet soul! So generous ! An extraordinarily talented lady in many areas! She excels in gardening and floral photography! I love to read her comments and descriptions accompanying her lovely photos....she has a way with words too! I am sure she could make a living at photography, if she had chosen this path! But I have no doubt that she is and has been on the right path. The Creator has blessed her with many gifts and talents. And she shares those things with so many others! To whom much is given, much is expected and she rises to the challenges in her life with courage and faith, hope and gratitude.
I am always delighted with each new addition to her photo stream! It's something I look forward to everyday! She takes delight in living and her enthusiasm shows ! I, too, am proud to call her
"Friend" ! Thanks Liza!

Lots of Hugs,

Sharon"

"This evening, after work, I was sad, tired, feeling...blah ! I checked my stream comments...none ! I chose to be positive and clicked on Liza's stream, asked for a diaporama of her pictures, stunning on black ! After 15 mn, I was well relaxed and active again !! All these beautiful captures shine on you !! That's the magical effect of her great talent to enhance the beauty around her !
Thanks, Liza for sharing !"

"Liza has been a contact of mine for a while now.I must say she has been a great one to she always has positive feedback and is a regular visitor to my humble pages.But more importantly she posts some of the most beautiful images of flowers to be seen anywhere.The name LizasGarden is such a perfect fit for her as she must have two green thumbs.Shots she has posted from her gardens are really stunning and so beautiful.Just as important to me is the fact that she seems to have a great love for all things and has such a wonderful enthusiasm about everything and everyone.I have a great opinion of Liza and her fabulous photos.I am very proud to have her as a contact and consider her a great flickr friend."
