Love my Nikon, but it's a heavyweight!!!

Taking a walk with my iPhone has changed my life and photo ops!!!

Music, gorgeous scenery with ever-changing color and fragrance---fitness, relaxation and inspiration!!

Bold photos, people moments, and street photography to cherish and share.
Hope you enjoy and try "funky phone photography"", too!!

What's more fun than taking a spontaneous photo almost every day?!

The joyous chirp and chatter of flying & swimming "friends" is everywhere...Take a look at the lovely creatures who have delighted our walks.

Flowers inspire awe and love....I enjoy their pure beauty, grace and endurance during an all-too-short life cycle.

Happy people, pets and wild creatures engaged in life's pleasures and pursuits

Living adjacent to the Stanford Campus in the Bay area, in close proximity to San Francisco, "Wine Country", SF Bay, San Jose, Monterey/Carmel, the Pacific Ocean and coastal towns, the Sierra -Tahoe &Yosemite is a year round photographer's "paradise"!

Enjoy a few favorite pictures from adventures to places visited and digitally immortalized during joyous exploration. Better idea, come visit!!

Take a walk outdoors and your day will be perfect!!!

Discover a world beyond imagination.....creatures great and small ...captivating vistas!

Visit a National Park and be thrilled!!

Enjoy!!

Can technology get any better??? Thank you Apple...LOVE IPHONE XI...Let's make it "sing"! Portrait with Stage Light and Video with Frame Capture, Digital Zoom, and Live mode, plus sensitive Light Auto-adjustment permit spontaneous storytelling! The images may not be "perfect" but capturing the moment is priceless!!!!

The 2020-2021 Covid-19 Pandemic is posing endless evolving challenges! Walking alone, masked or unmasked, mingling cautiously following social distancing rules, dining outdoors in cold weather, isolating from people and taking in the natural world as your "best friend and companion" when it was not safe to be with others, hopeful return to "what we knew" only to discover that Covid variants were knocking at the door...!!! My faithful iPhone XI pro captured fleeting moments that I share.... Here's to Health and Full Recovery!

Treasures created by iPhoneX...learning portrait mode.. on Apple photo walks or sleuth strolls in Palo Alto or Stanford Mall...Great Fun!

Filoli Gardens in Woodside is a National Historic site and local treasure. The impeccable gardens and early 20th century home excite the child and romantic in everyone who visits. The resident peacock, Percy, often surprises with his own memorable display! Enjoy!!

How can you resist those pleading eyes or that enthusiastic greeting?!

Our 4 legged "Best Friends" friends deserve to be front and center. Just ask, they'll tell you so.

Enjoy their total enjoyment of life and whatever they are doing at the moment!

Having Fun with IphoneX....I walk through the beautiful outdoor mall and follow the light catching reflections, shadows, illusions, patterns ...and a few people on the way. Such Fun!!!!

Bigger is not always better, especially when bigger means heavier, cumbersome and causing repeated injuries. So, alas, after a painful shoulder episode, I ditched my beloved, but very heavy Nikon equipment for a mirrorless setup. After several tries I landed a Panasonic Lumix...great photos, but a techno-struggle compared to Apple's fantastic iphoneX! I Love Apple's easily interchangeable formats and new portrait options, especially dramatic Stage Light. I Love the ability to grab a photo or video anywhere/everywhere, even while jiving or jogging to my favorite tunes! Best Bonus, Instant sharing!!! Even though I thought my Nikon was my BFFL, I happily embrace the new smaller, lighter amazing megapixel computer driven cameras that contribute so much Joy to my "sharing" life. I hope you will enjoy these mostly floral fun pics!!!
