In early 2021, I began taking photography classes with a local mentor, Michelle Rainey, who was willing to do one-on-one lessons with me. With her guidance, I learned how to take photos with an old Pentax camera, resulting in stunning and tricky black-and-white photography. She also introduced me to taking macro – extremely up-close – shots, and I was hooked.
You can read more about my teacher – and our ventures together – in my blog posts on black-and-white and macro photography, and photo editing with Lightroom. Without Michelle’s support, my knowledge and experience of this art form would be severely decreased. I’m eminently grateful for being able to work with her.

Beautiful, thanks for sharing about your photography journey. “The Burmis Tree” has so much emotion packed into that photo, well done! Hope Spring coming your way soon…

Much appreciated, Do! <3
I was spell bound by the photo of Chief Mountain. That is an unusual haunting perspective! Award winning status!
Thanks, Gramps!
