This photo was taken during an re-enactment. I have included it among my other pieces because it portrays the reality of another human being defending the freedoms of others. This man I do not know, but he represents the countless men and women who have fought on my behalf, and the behalf of all Americans. I am thankful that there is a lineage of men in my family who have served just as this man in the photograph. My father served in the United States Army for over twenty years. He was stationed in Korea on two occasions and Germany. My brother-in-law was an officer in the US Army and survived a tour in Viet Nam. So, did my uncle. One of my brothers served in the Navy on a submarine and another served in the National Guard. I am thankful that none of their lives were taken in battle, and I am also thankful for the many who have sacrificed their lives that I might live free. I salute you men and women who serve our country For Freedom!

I have enjoyed taking photos since I was a little girl, but especially began learning about the skill and art of photography in college; however, as years went by I, like most of us, put the camera in the drawer and would pull it out only for special occasions. For the most part, photography has been a passion that I put on the shelf; but now I have the opportunity to share with others some of my favorite photos,while exploring creative and new styles in photography and digital art. I enjoy taking photos of just about anything...animals, nature, vistas, people, architecture, and landscapes. I love it all! I am in awe of God's creation and ever so thankful that I have the opportunity to reflect a piece of it through a photograph. I hope...
