my shots are usually accompanied by poetry and/or lyrics.
my flora and fauna images are, usually, 'all natural' - no photoshop, etc.
i have begun experimenting with layering text, textures, and ttv - minimal post-processing for The Dictionary of Image and Complete Herbal groups. ...

warm thanks to all of my fine flickr friends for sharing their seasonal wonders - fabulous food for an unending macro/nature fascination - fine flickr fun!

P. J. McAdie says:
"jude's photos are amazing to view. she finds the beauty in the details of nature and presents them so perfectly. her artistry is moving and joyful and life-affirming. jude touches every part of my soul with her photos and words written by her or carefully chosen from another poet. jude is an artist, a poet, an intellect, and the best of friends. she and her photos are good for my soul. my only complaint is that she does not post nearly as often as i would like."

"When I first discovered flickr, the first photographer to capture my attention was Judith. Her artful skill and unique perspective have retrained my eyes to see a richer, more detailed side of nature. In addition to her wonderful photographic contributions, Judith takes much time to comment on and to encourage her contacts' work. Her presence is an integral part of why flickr is such a delightful online community."

"From the day I first met Jude on flickr I knew it would be a wonderful friendship! Viewing her spectacular photography is always a thrill for me. Walking through her flower pics is always a delight. She was truly born with two green thumbs. We share a special syncronicity that is always a mystery. Patience is a virtue - anticipate the daily beauty from her.
Hugs from Minnesota, my dear!"13th December, 2006

"Jude's photostream is a dangerous place - you will not get away quickly! Stopping in for a little peek usually turns into a long look, and some pondering over the musical references that make Jude's stream such an inspiring and wonderful place, and before you know it - you're an hour older. :) Thanks, Jude, for enriching our lives with your harmonizing of musical and visual artifacts, and for making the shared cyber-experience of flickr.com so worthwhile."

"When I get ready to photograph a flower, I always always think of jude, wondering how she would set it up. She has become my standard! Thank you for inspiring me to try harder to "get it right"."

"Hmmm what can I say about the best flora & fauna photographer on flickr in my eyes. Jude you always wow and awe me. Your spirit is so uplifting and genuine. When I see your artistry and encouraging comments it is like taking in fresh breath. It is like a cool cup of water to quench your thirst. You are one of the most beautiful persons I have had the opportunity to meet from flickr. I am glad we crossed paths and may many new photo opportunities come your way so we can all share in the enjoyment as well. Thank you friend and my best to you from Texas- xoxo Jonathan"

"'Jude' deserves wide acclaim for her beautiful photography. Employing a keen understanding of color, composition, and structure her photos stand apart from the typical macro close-up. I so enjoy coming back to her stream often to be dazzled by the amazing work she consistently shares with us all."
