Hello, photography is one of my favorite hobbies, most of the pictures on this page are my favorites. The subject which I tend to favor is nature, which might be explained by my profession (and degrees) I work with plants and I have a Masters in Forestry. I have a special fondess for Dandelions( In my view should have beat out Arabidopsis(Mustard plant) for mapping of its genome), the cherimoya tree(Annona cherimola)(my thesis is all about this tree), of course the ones I am working with now: Apples, Plums, Peaches, Pears; Molle tree(Schinus molle) or the California pepper tree, Any of the Acacias, Oak trees, the Paw Paw tree(due to its cousin the cherimoya tree) My next love is animals, especially dogs, My favorite puppy in the whole world is Chirimoya(Sorry Tupac, Prince, Duke, Princessa, Anita, and Maple). She was the most loyal little one I ever had and quite protective too. For the most part Photography is a hobby and occasionally I will send one to see if it has a chance to win a contest, no luck yet but taking the pictures is the most fun and I display the ones I most like on my apartment walls. Well enjoy my pictures, and perhaps you will be inspired to display your favorite photos as well.
