Photography has pretty much changed my life, in that, I look at every little thing differently now. I get so much pleasure being outdoors and finding new things to photograph. It gives me a tickle inside! I love the birds and flowers and all of nature so much. Sharing these treasures with all of you is very much a pleasure too. I hope you enjoy my photos as much as I enjoy taking them! This has been one of the most fun things I ever done... joining this community, it's given me more courage and confidence to explore what I really love to do... A BIG HUGE THANKS to all my friends here!!!!!!

 "Photographers deal in things which are continually vanishing and when they have vanished  there is no contrivance on earth which can make them come back again."
 Sometimes when we are generous in small, barely detectable ways it can change someone else's life forever...

Great macro photo - very colorful & lots of rich detail. As a young child, I was taught to fear a bee's sting, but now co-exist very happily with plenty of bees who do me the favor of pollinating my flowers & have no interest in doing me any harm...

I have the hardest time catching these guys. I guess the palm tree's are much to high for macro. Love you capture. Aloha
