If a picture paints a thousand words

This blog is a place for me to work on my photography. My goal is to submit a new picture every day and to get better as the moments go by. I take all pictures with my digital camera. I worked for years with a 35 mm minolta, and this is a learning experience for me. I am afraid that I got lazy and allowed the camera to choose most of the settings for me. This is my journey of learning how to shoot a camera that is not in a program mode. It is harder than I ever imagined. That makes this challenge both a new experience and a joy for me.

The Hawk

Driving down the road on my way to the Valley, and I just happened to be in the right place at the right time.  This guy was amazing!


"The purpose of life is to live it, to taste experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experience."  Eleanor Roosevelt 


I choose…to live by choice, not by chance.
To make changes, not excuses.
To be motivated, not manipulated.
To be useful, not used. To excel, not compete.
I choose self-esteem, not self pity.
I choose to listen to my inner voice,
not the random opinion of others.

  1. I love to see birds of prey! There's a road between my town and the next and often we'll see them on the utility poles. I never have a camera handy though.
