I have 2 wonderful sons, I live with my husband of 32 years.
My hobbies are my garden vegetables and flowers. I also love photography, reading, and making slideshows and making video's. I started in Photography with a digital camera about 5 years ago. I was helping out with our church newsletter etc. It evolved from there. I learn a lot from flickr.....the people are great....I love the process of constantly improving your craft. Flickr is like being in a club, without having to leave your home
"...I expect to pass through this world but once... any good, therefore, that I can do or any kindness I can show to any fellow creature... let me do it now... let me not defer or neglect it for I shall not pass this way again..."
“Watch your thoughts, for they become words.
Watch your words, for they become actions.
Watch your actions, for they become habits.
Watch your habits, for they become character.
Watch your character, for it becomes your destiny.”

PhotoBuz says:
"Ami has really amazed me about her high number of pix on flickr, first i thought she might be the owner or partner of this engine/site ;) but her passion for photography shows that she has a life in it for her. As u pass through her photostream (which is not stream at all, it is Amazon now ) u will find plenty of breathtaking frames. Her sets "seasons of the sun" and "professional photography" are matchless.
Enjoy every frame and put as many favs and comments as u can .... nBazmi"28th June, 2008
