I have been taking pictures for most of my life, as a matter of fact, I was really the family photographer, which is why many of the family shots growing up did not have me in them. I upgraded to a traditional SLR, my pentax K1000 which I love dearly, when my brother gave it to me as a gift in the mid 70's. My best friend and partner in crime, started with his first SLR in the mid 80's, and we have been avid photographers ever since.
So now we have taken the leap into digital photography with the acquistion of our digital SLR's which have opened up a renewed love of photography. Most recently, we have been focusing on the beautiful cactus flowers around us.
We hope you will enjoy taking whatever part of this journey you wish to, with us, and hope that what you see will stir up the emotions and joy that we find in doing it.
This is one of the first pink flowers to bloom this year. These flowers are so beautiful, but only bloom for one day and then die. Most times, they are fully opened in the middle of the night, and we do out and shoot in the dark
