I'm a contented human being. Just enjoying life on a daily basis. I've been an ER nurse for 16 years, a job I do on my days off from the simple enjoyment of life. Photography is a pleasant way to balance out the analytical and stressful time I spend in the ER.

Flickr especially, is a wonderful way to see the beauty that's always present, and all too often forgotten or taken for granted. I have met some great people here. Not to sound too much like a cliche.....It really is a small world.

I also sell my photos in stock photography. As of today I've sold 1774 photos. I suppose that makes me a professional on some level. I'm found under the name Kelsana at iStockphoto.com. Here is a link to my most popular photos.

    "Kelsana manages to capture the beauty that surrounds her and combines it with her obvious love for her family, community and environment. She allows us a peek at her world and it truly is a wonderous place from all we see. She has a natural eye for this wonder and beauty."
