wandering around with my dogs and camera, provides ample opportunity to practice my photography. i've learned to see things in a whole new way when on hikes and hope to portray them in a unique way in my photographs.

the cactus notecards? well, those are a whole 'nuther story.... those little critters are hard to find and when you do find them, they tend to be shy. it took a lot of bribery on my part to get them to pose for photos...
