I've always loved photography. We used to get National Geographic and I would spend hours reading the articles and flipping through the photos. Even though I always loved photography I didn't spend anytime on the subject until Nakita came home to live with us. I didn't even own a camera before then!

My life has been really up and down the last two years and money has been tight so I haven't had the chance to enroll in any serious photography programs. I hope to do that as soon as I can since right now I don't seriously look at the technical aspects. I just shoot what interests me and as you can see Nakita has played a large part.

I received an early birthday present from my sister. A set of portfolio cases for my photography. Since she gave me these portfolios, I guess I should start focussing more seriously on this subject, right? Can you imagine, I have been taking all these pictures yet I have never printed them out! My sister's present (the cabin picture above) was the first one I printed and I will also be framing this one of our grandfather's wood rowboat for her.



Thank you so much for your comments Vio. I appreciate everyone's interest.
