Shelle Ettelson's photostream  

Hello,

I am a huge fan of Flickr, and I love seeing everyone's images on here. I like all the different views and angles of approach that everone takes. It keeps us thinking and trying for more.

I love to photograph nature and the environment we live in. The world is full of beauty, and it changes continuously. The light can transform an atmosphere from gloomy to magical, and in a glance, it can be gone again. Many moments are missed by our busy lives. I attempt to capture some of those moments to share with you what it was like to be there, and I hope my photos will tell you a story.

My passion is with water and animals. My soul is drawn to water, you will usually find me traversing near a lake, brook or ocean, albeit wading or kayaking. My heart belongs to animals, tame and wild, such fascinating creatures once you sit and watch. I will not have as many photos of wild animals as I would like, I get restless while watiing for them to appear, in other words I get distracted by a spider web or a rain drop, and then miss the opportunity when the creature does arrive.

I love to travel but due to being involved in animal rescue for many years, my travels are limited. Most of my photos will be of New England. and some of TN, where we have a farm, named Firefly Ridge. Having said animal rescue, I have lots of pet photos, dogs, cats, and horses, which make intersting and funny prints or greeting cards, some of them will be posted soon.

You may purchase any photo you like, enlarged and framed or on canvas, on lustre or metal paper. Please email me with requests - cocoabean@myfairpoint.net.

I hope you enjoy my work, and please check back with me often, I am always adding new images.

Cheers and Thank you,
Shelle
