Sharon's Shotz (Gangie)'s photostream
|
Although my photographs are no where near as good as my eldest daughter's (who in my mind missed her calling in life) I am, nonetheless, sharing them with you and the world.
I live in Eastern Ontario with my husband, soul mate and all around great cook of 22 years and dog. We now residing in the Kingston area having relocated in 2006 from the Ottawa area. I am an Ottawa born native and always consider Ottawa home.
We are a blended family and as such I am a mother of five really great children (two boys and three girls) (his and mine) and "gangie" to seven grandchildren (five boys and two girls) although I only get to see my granddaughter on a regular basis thus the reason for the lack of photos of the grandsons (in case you are wondering).
My background is public administration working with the Federal Government and Crown Corporations. I am a retired officer with the Canadian Armed Forces (Reserves) where I taught Military Administration over the years in Toronto at the staff school, at CFB London and at CFB Edmonton in the former base Greisbach.
I have traveled from New Brunswick to British Columbia over the years and to Italy when I was in high school.
I have had a pen pal in England for over 43 years. I "dabble" in photography and poetry. I write poetry under the nom du plume Myrtle Gertrude (a "shared personality" that a good friend and I have had over the years).
I enjoy life and all it has to offer!

Geoff in Kingston says:
"Not surprising that there are already several testimonials here. What a prodigious output of quality pictures here! You can see very quickly that Sharon has a real "photographer's eye" when it comes to spotting picture possibilities in all kinds of places - and then having the skill to compose the shots in the best possible ways.. I'm very pleased to have met Gangie (Sharon) in real life and look forward to her contributions to the Kingston Photographic Club."

"Sharon gave me alot of help when I first joined Flickr..she was very patient with me, telling me the in's and out's of Flickr. She told me how to edit my pictures..She is a very sweet and loving individual. If you ever go to her site you will see a Mother, Wife And Grandmother all in one...Sharon's site makes you smile, laugh and emotional. We wanted to meet her badly when we went to Canada, because that is the type of Woman she is. She hosts alot of sites and a great person to get to know. Pauline and I love her, she is a great friend.
Blessings,
Chris and Pauline"21st September, 2008

mimitalks, married w/children says:
"Gangie (Sharon) is such an encourager. I am so happy to have had the chance to develop an online friendship with her.
It is obvious she has talent in Photography, as she has an array of Explore photos. It is equally obvious she loves life and people and animals and treasures the children in her life.
I feel privileged to have had this chance to know such a fine person.
