Featured Information
Due to my recent move to the Lake of the Ozarks, along with the Covid issues, I am currently not teaching group classes. However, I am available for private individual or very small group, in-the-field teaching, where we can safely learn more about our cameras and our photographic techniques..

Blushing Suzy
Today’s post features a new flower I grew in our Lake of the Ozarks (Missouri) butterfly garden this year.
