Thanks for visiting my website, where I share some of my images as well as information about our backyard.

I have a deep interest in nature and wanted to capture what I was seeing. As a result, I became interested in photography. Using a camera has given me an even greater appreciation of nature. It slows me down and encourages me to look closer. As a result, I’m often amazed at the mystery and beauty that is nearby and easily overlooked.

In 2005-06, we re-landscaped our backyard, with a focus on native plants that attract birds and butterflies. My weekly blog focuses on backyard observations and is one way of sharing what I learn. I hope this website will be a resource for others with similar interests.

You can see my images by visiting the photo galleries. Some images are available as notecards, which are sold at Good Foods Market and Café and the Lexington Arboretum, or you can order directly from me. All images are copyrighted, however I welcome inquiries about their use for publication or other purposes.

Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments.
