Here are a few of what "eye" see.
(Click on the pics to see a bigger version)


My husband gave me an earful when I took this pic on a bridge somewhere near Santa Barbara. He was certain I was going to get blown away due to the sheer force of the winds brought on by this beast.

Shortly after I took this picture, I was almost bitten in the face by a rattle snake. It was shaking its rattler so fast and loudly that I thought it was rushing water coming from somewhere that I could not see. Once I saw him, I was outta there.



I needed to "take a walk" and found myself strolling through the Fairview Nature Preserve at sunset and to what do I owe the honor of the presence of one glorious Red Tailed Hawk perched so gracefully as if to say, "Look at me." I have no idea except that they really like it there. They have made nests in the trees above our homes every year since I can remember and this year we got to watch the babies learn to fly. Hilarious!!







This beauty lives in the Butterfly House at the Environmental Nature Preserve in Newport Beach. I think he/she is quite happy there.

A New Life

I've been away, but I am back.

Once again, life was in charge and I had to let the writing take a back seat.

I found another love in my life aside from my husband and children, it's photography. My children take me to fun places like the Environmental Nature Preserve in Newport Beach and the Fairview Nature Preserve in Costa Mesa. These places allow for some of the most breathtaking sights, like a butterfly "taking a wife" as my children understand it to be or a chrysalis daintily hanging from a single thin thread waiting for it's precious cargo to emerge in all of it's glory.

My wonderful husband gave me a Nikon D3100 Digital camera for our anniversary and I haven't put it down since. I either have great talent or the camera just knows what to do and when to do it. Must be the latter.

So, I think I might just shake things up a bit and start posting some of my work. Who knows where it might take me. For starters, you may have noticed the new cover page shot... yes, my doing.

I will be posting pictures and comments more often, so stay tuned....
