'Without light there is no photography. It is the inspiration and life-giver to the photographic image' Max Dupain 1988

My Profile.
I'm a wife, mother, plane/ship enthusiast and I love photography (I'm just a freelance/hobby photographer not a pro photographer) "pro" on flickr just means I pay to have the account. I have spent hours photographing aircraft, ships and just about everything else. Have even had my photo's published in magazines & Books, and also some have been used for marketing, Tourism, Websites etc. To sell your first photo is a buzz you won't forget.
I'm always learning more about photography, and I enjoy every moment, and every shot I take. I just don't enjoy sorting through them at the end of a shoot...lol
Criticisms from my "peers", on my work, gratefully received, as long as they are followed by some constructive advice. PS.. I simply don't argue with fools it only encourages them ;-)
A word of advice don't auto anything!! That goes for camera settings (cameras simply aren't that smart) and Photoshop . Remember the "Rule of Thirds", although it's not written in blood.
Please don't be offended if I Fave your photo and don't leave a comment. I only Fave photo's I truly admire, so please take it as highest praise. (and I'm not stealing your photo's by faving them, as some do) I have a lot of contacts and photo's to look through and I simply can't comment on every single one.

***** PLEASE DON'T INVITE ME TO JOIN FLICKR GROUPS!!
They are getting out of hand and too time consuming and complicated these days.
I'm too old and cranky to waste my precious time following all their stupid inane rules!
I'm here to share and have fun, lots of lovely talented people on Flickr just enjoy the photo's and stop hassling people with endless emails to join this that or the other, OR the group emails to look at your photo or send UNSOLICITED NEWSLETTERS to my Flickrmail !!! *****

**Just one more criticism; IF YOU want to FAV MY PHOTO'S YOU MUST HAVE A PROFILE THAT IS at least FILLED IN, with a bit about yourself and some photo's and or photo sets of your own to share with the flickr community.
I get a little suspicious when people fav photo's and have NO PROFILE and NO PHOTO'S of their own. This will lead to being INSTANTLY BLOCKED by me!!**
