So I have decided to put up some of my own photography. Most of these pictures are at least 2 years old. I took all of these with my point and shoot digital camera. I have always enjoyed photography, but it took me a long time to decide that this is what I wanted to do as a career. When I first came to college I was a chemistry major. I am a practical person and so I picked a practical major. I love chemistry and think that it is completely fascinating, but it just didn't' feel right so after a year I changed majors to geology. Not quite as practical as chemistry, but still workable. I also think that geology is fascinating, but after a semester I still felt like it wasn't the right fit for me. I became undecided for a semester and that following summer I decided That I needed to do some serious thinking. By the end of the summer I had decided to do photography. I was still so uneasy about it though. Photography seemed so unpractical in my mind and that was the reason why I hadn't picked it in the first place. Ever since I have started down this road I have started to actually enjoy school. I guess that just shows you that I am finally in the right place. :)
A lot of people have said that making a hobby your job takes the enjoyment out of it, but I see it differently. If I have to work then I want to be doing something I love. I don't want to wake up in the morning dreading another day of work.
The photos that I have put up here are a nature shots. I love taking pictures of nature, specifically flowers and small insects or animals. Now, because I am a practical person I want to become a typical family/wedding photographer. But I will always take pictures of nature. These are a few of my favorite nature shots.

Wow! These are really good Kiery- I've always been firm believer that taking pictures of sunsets is kind of pointless since you never really capture it-- but I love the two sunset pictures you took! I think I love that the sunset isn't the entire subject of the picture- I love the reflection in the water in the first on and of course the sailboat in the second one. Good stuff! You have such an eye for this sort of thing-- I really respect that because I'm really really not good at photography!
