What am I doing?

Thank you Brian for helping get me going

I started taking pictures by accident.  My husband had always been the one behind the camera.  For Christmas in 2004, I bought him a Canon EOS Digital Rebel.  Well, he gave it back to me and I started taking pictures and taking on-line classes to learn more about digital photography.  At first, I took baby steps, occasionally getting a good photograph, but learning Adobe Photoshop as I went.  I am still taking small steps and still learning about Photoshop and some of the creative things that can be done.  I feel more at ease behind the camera now and can see “Photo Moments” developing and can be prepared to shoot when the time is right.

I knew from an early age that music was not a strong talent, so I concentrated on my art in school. Then came marriage, work and children, art was put on a back burner. After receiving a digital camera in 2004, I took some on-line classes in digital and nature photography. Adobe Photoshop became a playground for my newly released talent. Because my husband had used Canon lenses on his film cameras, I purchased a Canon T1i and I had a ready made set of toys to use. After retiring in 2008, I finally had time to play seriously. In 2009 I won third place in a Missouri Forces of Nature Contest with a photograph of Angry Clouds. I joined Summit Art, an organization in Lee's Summit, that exhibits photographs and paintings in St Luke's East Hospital. I have participated in many art shows and now I want to share my photographs with others. I plan on taking more lessons, and I have a yearning for more information on lighing, color and presentation.
