oceans' photostream
|
I love photography, and see it as a form of meditation and expression. I am hoping to build a group of contacts to share comments, and knowledge with.
I am a mother of two teenage boys, and a scientist who has worked in Academic Research, Biotechnology, and Clinical Laboratories.
I love the beauty that is found in nature and the state of Maine, and enjoy spending time by the ocean.

"I know Ava through her wonderful and varied photos on flickr. I admire the versatility in her photos and enjoy the way she seems to chronicle her lifes everyday events. I think it is apparent through her photos that she is a warm and spiritual person, and it is always a pleasure to view her photostream."

"Ava and I met through our Flickr photos and we have since had the good fortune to meet in person. Now we go out and shoot together whenever we can. She has brought a fresh new approach to the way I see things. Ava has a wonderful eye for the small things that can be so easily overlooked. She has a way of capturing the inner soul of things. She is a wonderful photographer and I'm happy to consider her a friend."

"I have known Ava for a few years now. We were both on a forum together and I got to know her there. She was always trying to help people and is such a warm, strong, spiritual person. She has also been through so much but remains such a kind calming influence. Her beautiful inner soul and personality really come through in her photography. Her photos are all so unique and she displays such a great variety of life’s images. My favorites are her captures of her new home in Maine with its beautiful coastline and wonderful sights. She is a gifted photographer who gets better every day and treats us to a view of her world. Thanks for your friendship and support Ava."
