I love capturing the world around me with my lens. Since I've begun developing a deeper interest in photography, I find myself more attentive to my surroundings. My eye is constantly on the lookout for an interesting shot! I'm a true believer in the saying "a picture speaks a thousand words." I most enjoy nature, landscape and travel photography, but I'm inclined to photograph anything that captures my fancy.
I don't use particularly sophisticated gear - just a Fuji point-and-shoot camera - but I think there's more to being a good photographer than having a fancy camera. I make use of Corel Paintshop Pro X2 for post-processing work on my photos.
The work I see here on Flickr continually delights and challenges me to be a better photographer. I always appreciate an opportunity to learn, and I welcome constructive criticism (and of course, compliments ;)) about my photos.
Feel free to visit my blog Seashells and Sunflowers about my life as an American expat living in Argentina.


Please do not make me a contact and/or fave my photos if you do not have any images, contacts or profile information available to me. After all, Flickr is about sharing access to images.

"Hello "Katie" , well I just wanted to say how fun it has been in such
a short period of time, to be your friend. Your warmth and kindness
shows through not only in your comments but through your photos
too which are so unique, so special and warm. I enjoy your humour and sense of fun and kindness. Thank you so much for the rich diversity of your photos and if anyone is taking a look for the first time, enjoy and feast your eyes you will not be disappointed. I so look forward to the next photo ."21st September, 2008
