I live in such a beautiful area (northern California Sierra Nevada mountains) it is impossible for me not to want to capture the glorious natural scenes I see on a daily basis. While I've been interested in photography for about 50 years, I did not view it as an art form until I acquired my first digital camera a couple of years ago and learned how to manipulate my shots using Adobe PS CS. Originally I took photos as reference for my drawing and painting endeavors -- now I consider photography as another expressive artistic outlet. Generally I will find something wonderful to photograph each day.
