Make yours @ BigHugeLabs.comhttp://bighugelabs.com/flickr/map.php

Hello all
I want to reflect on my short 17 months that I have spent on Flickr as I have gained so much in the way of friendship, expertise from my contacts, and it has been great way to learn just about anything through the group forums. We have almost every type of information you can think of on Flickr....a wealth of information and kind-hearted members who are more than happy to assist with any information you require about Photography. The groups are great fun but please make use of the information forums as I have delved into the information and expertise of some of these members and I am amazed as to the learning curve in these groups. Flickr has Photoshop groups, Wedding groups, flash groups, every type of camera groups, fine art photo groups, HDR and Digital Blending groups and even prop groups for ideas for portraits. I can't thank the members enough for this "bank of information overload" ;) LOL.

To any new member....enjoy but you need to give to receive! I have been non-stop learning through courses, books, forums, blogs and I now realize that the education in Photography is endless and it is only ourselves that stand in the way of this wonderful art form." Be observant of our world to the smallest detail as there is beauty in all things....it is just whether we can see clearly to capture its essence"

Be well....be focused....have fun.....but don't forget your camera!!

Warm Regards
Cottage Gal

    "Ruth's work is sensitive, artistic, with a pronounced emphasis on composition. Any of her photos could as easily be an oil painting. You can teach a lot of things, but having that "eye", well that comes from God.

    However, as much as I love her work, I love her encouragement, support, and good cheer. Truly a lovely person, this."

    "What I have to say about Ruth is that she has been inspiring me since I met her here in Flickr. Her photostream is outstanding. She can give a soul to a piece of wood , or a tree or a simple small snow flake. She gives the sensation of lack of time whe we look at her pictures . We can say she has a big kind heart. And I may say she has been giving me a lot of incentives with her nice comments and awards. I'm sure she has been loved by all her friends and family . Because what I feel coming from her work is love!!
    Thank you Ruth to be my friend! I feel so honored!"

    "Ruth is a talented photographer with great senses of capturing beautiful natural objects with her eyes and camera, and transform them into extra ordinary nice to look photos. Many of her photos are objects commonly found around and of common theme, but her skill of photography and her love to natural environment make her works beautifully special and unique.
    I'm really happy to know her and her works that spark some inspirations to me."
