I am 56 and married for 32 years to my husband, Bob. We have two wonderful children--our son, Eric, is 26 and our daughter , Mairead, is 21. I'm happy to say that Eric is engaged to Tammy---their wedding will be next June.
Mairead is also on flickr, so please check her photos out.
I'm a college counselor, the director of a program to support students with disabilities or who are having academic difficulty.
I became interested in photography in the spring of 2006. Since then, I feel like I've learned a lot--not only about technique and process; but, also about expressing my creativity through photography. Most importantly, I am definitely having fun with it. There is a lot of junk on my photostream and some good stuff too. I seem to like viewing the transition I've made as a photographer--from not so good to a few that are good enough to print and, of course, everything in between.

"Diann is such a sweetheart! Her photographs are beautiful, and her kitties are precious - especially her siamese Oreo cousins :) She is always so kind and full of inspiration! I've enjoyed getting to know her through Flickr, and it is always a treat to visit her photostream and read her kind comments."
