My cat Jasmine, who got old and went to the great Pasta Bowl in the sky a few years ago.
She was a long haired kitty but she loved having her "Lion Cut."
Did just a bit of dodging and burning in Photoshop, bit of sharpening and I punched up the saturation in those green eyes.

'Thumper' the squirrel who lives in our backyard and steals peanuts from the blue jays.

Greedy Bird who sits in the tree and complains loudly until we give him peanuts... which the squirrel steals.  :P

I don't consider myself to be any kind of photographer, but I do like to dabble with a kite photography rig. Here's some of the stuff I've gotten.

Baylor Pass, NM. Shot with Canon Powershot flown under flowform 16.

I'm going to start out with a confession; I use my cellphone for my photos, nor am I an amazing photographer... so...yeah...

Pictures I got at the Botanical Garden in San Antonio...

























I have some from the Hawai'i Garden where I got the picture of me with the Bodhi tree (I think I posted that before?) and local, but I need to find them again and get them on the web...

PR, are you using HDR to shoot some of those? Some amazing work, there!
My hubby dabbles in photography and loves HDR. I mostly take pictures of my daughter and different fabrics, so not as exciting. Still, when I get home, I will try and find a few of our best to share.

You should be.  When I go on vacation, that's what I want to see.  I don't care about the Empire State Building, or Disneyland, or how nice the motel was.  Just let me walk 5 miles through a marsh to get to a place like that, and I'll be happy.

I feel the same way. :) All of nature's little wonders are what make me really happy. A bird, a bug, a flower, a rock.....they all the potential to make my day. Nature is awesome and it's been my inspiration for my amateur photos.

Here's a photo I took when I went to the Smokey Mountains for my wedding! I woke up early just for the sunrise....
