Bamboo Tank Top

Bamboo grows right along the Salt River in the Tonto National Forest in Mesa, Arizona. I love the textures of bamboo.

In high school I took a photography class with an art teacher who became my friend and mentor. This was back when I was in the dark room creating black and whites (probably running late to my other classes). I had already documented my family and our animals on the farm by this time--images that today remain in my heart and collections. The camera goes with me everywhere. I specialize in landscape, wildlife, equine, and floral photography. My eye goes where it is called. From the smallest detail to the widest landscape. It is the one activity I can still do with a back injury and at my own pace that brings me joy and allows me to share my point of view with others. I hope my images speak to your heart!
