  I started photography as a hobby when the Covid 19 pandemic hit, and my job cut our hours. Finding extra time on my hands, family turmoil, and a scary time in life threw me into a near depression, and I knew I would not survive sitting in the house. I started hiking and taking cell phone pictures. This led to the purchase of a camera and making homemade Christmas presents. I went to my deceased uncle’s old home place and took a picture of a windmill that I would print on metal for my mother for Christmas because she loved windmills, and the personalization of it would make it special. Once I had it completed, I posted on social media, and things took off. I have since been laid off. So, when life gives you lemons…I have started a website called Life and Photographs, which includes two blogs. The first about different photographs I have taken, the stories behind them, and the second one about my three dogs, because they already had an established social media fan base. Now that the website is up and running, I’m ready to go a step farther on my photography. To do this, I feel I have a lot to learn.
