In 2003, I met Bernie Saunders , an artist with a camera. Bernie coaches his clients to find the places in their lives where they create at the level of art.

That got me back into photography, a hobby of mine about 30 years ago.

More recently, my coach, Linda Anderson, said her husband Floyd Limbos, also an artist, has a web page featuring some of his work.

Seeing their work, I was inspired by their amazingly dramatic images. I decided to share with you some of my "bug and bud shots."

These come mostly from our back yard with some from friends yards or from a vaction.
