Hi! I'm from South Texas and I love to find the beauty in the most ordinary things. It's there if you look for it--the beauty that is. hehehe Sometimes I have to look really really close--macro close--in order to find the beauty but, sure enough, there it is.
Hope you are able to see the beauty in your part of the world. And, together on Flickr, we can share it!
Thanks for dropping by! Oh, and thanks for your comments!

"It's hard to categorize MH's snapshots in one word. There have been many times that I will simply walk past a potential subject for one of her photo captures without noticing it and will be simply amazed at what she can find in the most seemingly normal things. I love her macro shots, but she never ceases to amaze me with each shot she captures. Her subjects range from foliage to clouds and sunsets to people.. but she's not limited to just that. I'm always looking forward to her new uploads, but I can't wait until she's back up and running with her camera -- uploading brand new photos!"
