    My aunt Gerry gave me my first camera(Instamatic I believe) and I've had a love of photography ever since. I got serious about it when I tried to get some pics of our grandson Alex playing sports, but my camera and skills just weren't up to the task. I bought my first DSLR a Canon XS(1000d) and got a certificate in Photography and haven't looked back. I took that camera to Hawaii and took over 1400 photos.

    I've continued my study of photography taking many additional classes and courses online and in person and I hope I can pass on what I have learned to you.

    Title or Location: Wild Mustang Observation Lot - Tulsa, OK
    I wanted to take a cool sunrise pic with beautiful landscape but wasn?t sure where to go. Google for the win! I learned Tulsa has a Wild Mustang reservation where older or unwanted horses can retire and live out there days wild and free. I was very excited to go, but fully expected to not see any horses at all. To my surprise, I saw nearly 40 or more running about and it was a stunning sight.

    Title or Location: 36th Yale neighborhood. Tulsa OK
    You can usually find me in my backyard on the weekends this time of year trying to get the perfect shot of Hummingbirds or our other backyard visitors. You never know what is going to show up. Last Sunday?s unexpected visitor was this fabulous Barred Owl. Hunting at 4:00 in the afternoon. It was perched over one of our Ponds. Was a little surprised to see it at this time of day but I was excited to be able to get some great shot. I took this using my Panasonic DMC with the LUMIX G Vario 45-200

    Title or Location: Owasso, OK
    The sprinkler fanning back and forth across my back yard in early June attracted quite a few of the neighborhood birds. Robins, Blue Jays, and many more bathed in the oscillating spray but it was this Cardinal that caught my attention. Perched on my back fence, her appearance seems to say, "I've had a rough day, and this fool is trying to take my picture".Canon 90D 459mm 1/2000, f/6.3, ISO3200Highlight & shadow editing done in Lightroom

    The cold winter air had just started rolling in that week and the birds still around were coming to our back yard to gather some food from our bird feeders. This little one was waiting his turn as he rested on the string lights right outside our back window.

    Title or Location: Golden Gate Bridge - San Francisco, CA
    On a whirlwind trip to California, my husband and I saw as many sights as we could in one day. On that list was the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco. We didn't have much time to find the best location/angle to shoot, so we stopped on the side of the road and I shot this standing right outside our car. Shot with a Canon 90D, 18-55mm lens, 1/500, f9, ISO 500. So much more stunning in person!

    Title or Location: Ah-Shi-Sle-Pah Wilderness, New Mexico
    This is near the Bisti Wilderness and Chaco Canyon on Navajo land. I had wanted to visit the area since finding out about this place over 25 years ago. Finally was able to make the visit this past April with a Navajo guide. This spot, the Toadstool, is to the side of the Alien Throne which was the primary subject for the hike. There is so much to take in and this is just one small part of it. Everywhere you look there's another formation. Just awesome.

    Title or Location: Meadowlands
    A photo of a Tree Swallow taken during a walk through the meadowlands. These birds are extremely quick and erratic often difficult to photograph. Luckily this one decided to take a little posing break and allowed me a nice shot. Taken with my Canon R5 with a Sigma 150-600 mm lens.

    Title or Location: Leicester, England.
    Once a month, or so, I would go into my home town of Leicester early on a Sunday morning to take some photos before there were too many people around. This particular morning there was light rain and the sun was trying to break through. The scene was great but the sky was uninspiring so a better sky was added and then processed in DXO's NIK Silver Efex.The camera was my trusty Ricoh GRIII which has a great lens and small enough to put in your pocket.

    Title or Location: Esperance WA
    I was walking around the rocks at sunset, enjoying the clouds, and thinking I had better get to shelter as that rain burst was heading my way. The sun suddenly highlighted the underside of the rain cloud, and I managed a few shots.I also got rained on very soon afterwards!Canon R6M2 with kit lens 24-105mm.ISO 2000, 24mm, f9.0, 1/1000s. Post in LRC.
