I have recently joined a site called RedBubble, which has given me an opportunity to showcase my photographs. I fell in love with photography about 2 years ago when I needed some photos for my book covers and my books themselves. I began with a simple inexpensive phone camera and now I use a dijital point and shoot Lumix camera.
My photos are for sale as greeting cards and framed prints.
I am also getting ready to approach various Animal protection charities in San Antonio Texas because I would like to donate some of the earnings from my photography and books towards the protection of animals. I am sad to say that in Texas, dogs and all animals are officially treated as possessions - in the same category as furniture and owning your furniture is the same as 'owning' a dog. Dogs are not considered to be living (loving) beings with a heartbeat. There are so many stray dogs around San Antonio and the culture appears to accept that as being acceptable. Dogs are left in back yards in all weather and I have asked myself why people even have a dog - well the answer is - it is a cheap alarm system and when this alarm system breaks down - it is easily replaced with a new one
Besides my passion for photography and writing and gardening, I have a passion to try and ease the plight of dogs and offer assistance to those organisations that dedicate themselves to educating and rescuing abused pets.
