I am west of you in a little town called Live Oak. I love St. Augustine and have been there many, many times. Beautiful city on the water.

Thank you so much. Animals are my favorite subject. I find them much easier to work with than humans, lol!

Everyone is submitting spectacular scenery! I'm afraid where I live there isn't anything so stunning. I will try and capture a "framed" landscape in my drab part of the world, lol.

I do quite a bit of volunteer work for two charities. First, we have an amazing animal rescue in my area that is non-profit. I've photographed their Christmas party, their Santa with the animals put on at a local Tractor Supply, photograph new animals coming in as well as ones that have been adopted and other events to help get the word out about them.

I also volunteer to photograph at a yearly horse ride and benefit for Comprehensive Community Services, which raises funds for the intellectually challenged citizens for their handicap riding program.

I really could use some paying jobs but they're not coming in so I do what I can for others and know I am doing what I should to help my community. Hopefully along the way, I can improve. They appreciate me and that feels good.

I instantly saw a difference in the iris after you lightened her eyes. The right eye (her left) is much lighter than the left (her right). Beautiful child and beautiful picture.
