I love being creative and always have. I have many activities that fulfill me creatively- drawing, painting, writing- but none afford me the infinite range of possibilities that photography does.

Although in my studio I shoot portraits, I love to photograph waterfalls, flowers and food, and I love my beautiful home state of Pennsylvania and all of its gorgeous mountain scenery. I've been an avid photographer for 24 years thanks to my father and where I live.

I love my life and I photograph what makes me happy- that can vary depending on the time of year and where I am, but you'll always see something in my photostream that makes my heart smile. ♥♥♥.

Thanks for looking at my stream. I am encouraged and bouyed by helpful comments and flickrmails that I get.

If you'd like to use one of my photos, please ask first. Thanks!

    "Senorashutterbug!!

    Today is her flickerversary. :) So first of all... Wish you many many many happy returns of this day Senora. :)

    Claudia... Senorashutterbug as she calls herself... was the first flickerite I had met on flickr.

    There was this pic of a huge red gerbera with a description written in a language I didn't understand. But that didn't stop me from being impressed by that beautiful macro. I remember... just sitting in front of the laptop screen saying... whao! whao! whao!!

    :D

    Ever since... till date... Claudia's shots, specially the macros never cease to evoke any other reaction but a "whao!!" from me. :) Am sure most of you would agree with me.

    And her "gettin busy"shots were just brilliant. :)

    But what makes Senora stand out... is not just the way she is amazing with the camera or her gear.... but the way she is amazing with people too. Be it a small doubt a big dilema... Claudia has always been there for me when I looked to her for help.

    Senora... Gracias!! For being a good friend! :) For being you!! :) :)"
