I came to photography rather late in life, it's been a steep learning curve since around August 2003 , but I enjoy it so much. I'm really more of a happy snapper than anything else.
Taking photos is my way of relaxing and forgetting about my rather stressful job. My goal is to one day find the time to learn more about photo editing, and progress beyond the basics...one day.
Please note: whilst I really appreciate invites to groups, please forgive me if I don't join, my time constraints prevent me from participating as much as I would like.



Some of my photos are available for sale from the following site:

"Barbara
This testimonial has certainly been way over do,
I have admire your work for a few years, and in those years I have learn about your country, your wildlife, and your people through your images and I can only say we should all take a page from the way you respect and treat life.
It has been a pleasure..
I might be silent, but always in the background ."14th November, 2007

"This is such a pleasure for me....to be able to write a testimonial for Barbara. Her photostream is awesome. I haven't ever found a photograph of hers that I didn't like. She is very professional, yet claims she is not a PRO. Her photos are always crystal clear on all sizes.
But most of all, she's a very dear friend. One that I know I can count on if I am ever in need of anything.
Thanks Barbara, for your friendship and all your help. You are a true "gem.""3rd September, 2007

"I grew up on the Sunshine Coast, and Barbara's photos always elicit wonderful memories for me... They also make me hanker for a return there if only for a holiday...
Thanks for sharing this part of the world, Barbara... Your photos are truly wonderful and show the Sunshine Coast in all its splendour. Keep up the good work, mate..."6th July, 2007
