Spent a fabulous weekend with my fabulous husband who allowed me to do some fabulous editing work. In the photography phases of my life,  subject matter may change like the weather but one thing remains constant; I am shooting or I am editing.  To be editing provides the brain (right or left?) with much needed [...]

The New York City trips I have taken over the past five years consitute an extremely varied body of work. It was as if I could not be limited by subject matter or format, my eye exploring every avenue.  I was fortunate to have 5 (or is it 6) trips from which to choose images.

Our nation’s capitol. Visually stunning. Overwhelming with historical references. World renowned as the showcase of democracy. Lots of great restaurants, too. What I remember of my first visit; the fireworks, knowing without a doubt that I wanted to be a mounted policewoman when I grew up. I brought my actual [...]
