MODES
Aqua, Tiffany blue, turquoise, teal, and robin-egg blue are all from the same bluish green family
that makes up my favorite color.
The Ol Dodge (left) - Lyman, Idaho. My neighbors still use this old pick-up truck for farming.
Ive always loved the color, and especially the contrast of colors in the deeper layers of paint.
Camera: Nikon D5000. Settings: 18 mm; f/10; 1/80 sec; ISO 200.
Pipe Dream (below, left) - With all the farmers in the area, irrigation supplies are in high demand.
This shot was taken at an irrigation supply store in Rexburg, Idaho. Camera: Nikon D5000.
Settings: 72 mm; f/14; 1/320 sec; ISO 3200.
Keepsakes (below, center) - Lyman, Idaho. These are the pearls my husband gave me for our
first Christmas together in 1998. The ceramic soap dish holding them was made by my husband
in elementary school in Kuna, Idaho, about 1967. Camera: Nikon D5000. Settings: 300 mm; f/5.6;
1/640 sec; ISO 3200.
Graffiti Train (below, right) - Rexburg, Idaho. Graffiti on trains is so interesting. I imagine there
must be a story behind every image. In this shot I altered the color of the sky to match my
favorite color of blue/green hues in the graffiti paintings. Camera: Nikon D5000. Settings: 18
mm; f/22; 1/1000 sec; ISO 2800.
COLOR
study
Concha Sea (left) - I used the gradient tool to bring color to the
sky. I increased the vibrance, temperature and contrast. Lastly
I added a slight vignette. Camera: Nikon D5000. Settings: 190
mm: f/5.6; 1/500; ISO 400. Other: tripod.
Blue Glass Ball (above) - I increased the clarity and vibrance,
and added a vignette. Camera: Nikon D5000. Settings: 220 mm;
f/32; 0.5 sec; ISO 100. Other: tripod.
Egin Lakes Dream (above, right) - I increased the vibrance,
temperature, then applied the adjustment brush to lighten the
shadows in the foreground and background. Camera: Nikon
D5000. Settings: 18 mm; f/8; 1/30 sec: ISO 200.
Dragonfly (right) - I increased the sharpness and vibrance, then
I added a vignette. Camera: Nikon D5000. Settings: 240 mm;
f/5.6; 1/500 sec; ISO 400. Other: tripod.
LIGHTROOM
This activity was particularly challenging for me because I get so nervous when I
do portraits. I do love enhancing portraits in Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop. Used
together, there is really nothing that cannot be accomplished.
Macie (left) - My 9 month-old granddaughter came to visit with her parents for a family
portrait. She was very patient with me as we attempted many different shots and poses.
Mostly she loved to put everything in her mouth. Camera: Nikon D5000. Settings: 280
mm; f/5.6; 1/100; ISO 500. Other: tripod and white reflector.

TYPOGRAPHY
A photography trip anywhere is my kind of fun, and this excursion to Bannack was no exception. My only
disappointment was having to leave. Bannack, Montana is located just a few miles from Dillon, Montana. Bannack
is a state park, and has been kept well preserved with artifacts and buildings, and in our case, beautiful fall colors!
Schools Out (left) - I can almost see the children running inside, clamouring to their seats after recess on a
beautiful fall day. I imagine my great-grandparents must have attended a similar school as their families built
homesteads in new townships. Camera: Nikon D5000. Settings: 32 mm; 0.4 sec; f/20; ISO 125. Other: tripod.

Statement
My love for photography began when I was 12 years old. I had just
purchased my first camera, a Kodak Instamatic X-15, along with a roll of 24
exposure Kodak 200 film. Even then I could see a beauty and appreciation
for composition, lighting, and focus.
Today my photography skills continue to improve as I learn new techniques
and explore new ideas. I love capturing nature, night painting, abstract,
old buildings and autos, and candid portraiture.
