I'm a 'happy to stay at home' 52 years young, mother to 3 terrific sons. 2 have flown the nest, and one is getting close to that stage of life! :( I actually am sad to see this part of my life come to an end, I adore being a mom and wish my boys all lived next door if they can't live at home. :) I am a fairly new Grandma with a couple of beautiful Grand-darlings. My dear hubby (AzRon) and I have been happily married for 30 years. I am a follower of Jesus, and hope to portray the beauty of God's creation in my very amateur photography. I am 'trying' to get back to my love of art, too... drawing, sketching painting. (any of my art creating contacts, please feel free to use any of my photos as resource photos for your art, I'd love to see a photo of any finished sketch or painting you might make from my photography) :)
Years ago as a newlywed, I took a photography class in college , but had to drop the class after I became pregnant with my first child (dark room chemicals).
Well...many years later I've rediscovered the hobby. I'm a total amateur with budget level equipment. But I hope to learn and grow. Thanks to my son for telling me about flickr.
My dear hubby's photos are here:

*My* first picture to make 'Explore' ...

wasn't even taken by me! Lol...my sweetheart took it, but I tweaked it a bit in picasa...so it's partially my creation. ;o)
Happily, since then a few of my own shots have been in Explore.
