I'm probably like many of you, trying to figure out what the heck to say to introduce myself. I am much better at visuals..OOO Here's one.
I LOVE wine LOL. I'm not an excessive drinker, just appreciate a really good glass now and again. Preferably Malbec, God Bless Argentina. Speaking of which I am kind of a foodie. Love Entrana and Chimichurri. Oh Debra focus.
I'm an L.A. woman from Chicago originally. Spent nearly 30 years as a local and national news anchor/reporter. I'm a story teller pretty much, then and now. Now by choice, I am telling stories through my lens.
I walked by this guy chillin on a bench. Smiling and chatting with a woman. When I asked If I could photograph him,he agreed. But the smile left and his intensity revealed itself. That's the cool thing about street photography. It is real and sometimes raw.
But capturing who someone is inside, is what I love so much. Their life struggle, how I seem to fade away when the person that my lens is focused on allows their thoughts to surface.
A musical genius who can't compose a song, that will silence the fear of his life threatening illness. I feel privileged, so humbled to be able to reveal real emotions with imagery. Why me? Maybe its the years of connecting with all types of people, whose stories I had to tell in the news business. Maybe it's easier to tell someone elses truth than to reveal my own.
Right now I am immersing myself in tiny little feet and hands. LOL Newborns are so beautiful and like globs of silly putty, you can shape them into the cutest poses.
Wow cutie Kylie is 10 days old here. Like a little sleeping princess. So you can see I love all types of images. I don't profess to be an expert at any of this. But If I can shed some light on the world of photography, I am happy to do so. In future posts I will list the equipment that I use. But for now I would ask that you keep an eye out for me.
I can't wait to wander through all of your posts, and learn a few things for two. But for now my precious pooch PEACE and I are
calling it a night. Sweet dreams Steemians.
