The Crunch?

My interest in photography continues to grow and I am now considering my "next steps" in how I want to explore and "capture" the world around me. I have an account at Flickr and as part of my enjoyment of the photography hobby I wander around the Flickr site and view other people's work. The quality and breadth of what is reproduced amazes me.Exploring the site is wonderful from the point of having access to so many photo albums created by so many people with different interests and perspectives. It is easy to get addicted. This morning I stumbled upon the work of a young women from Britian. Amazing self portraits-incredible composition and enhancement through Photoshop. I was also fasinated by her portrayal of her surroundings-the capturing of her home environment,dogs and architecture. Her dedication to her art and expression is inspiring! She is just one of many people that are open and willing to share their art! I need to take more pics!
