Hi, I am a retired high school English teacher with a love for the art of photography and the stories behind the scenes. I am learning my Nikon D200 after bequething my D70 to my son. I have a lot to learn! It's really fun sharing with my son and those of you out in the ether. I live in the country and hope to share some of its delights with anyone who is interested. Hope to meet you here!
