The Joy of Photography

As mentioned in a previous post, I love taking photographs.  I was talking with a friend yesterday about how sometimes selling what you love doing and becoming successful could take away the pleasure of doing what you love.  I enjoy taking pictures and don't ever want to lose that joy - the joy of looking through the photos I've taken and seeing that one shot that made it all worthwhile.

My primary subject is landscape. There is so much beauty in this world we live in that I can't help documenting it.  So here are some of my favorite photos.
