My first really non-family photos where at the stars. I found interest in astronomy 1993 and wanted to take photos of what I saw. The first was star trails. Then when I had purchased my second telescope I could take photos thought it. Jupiter, Saturn, Sun, Moon and more was my models.
After a while nature photographing was getting more and more interesting and now days its only occasionally the sky gets on the pictures.
In fall 2000 I joined the PSA after a recommendation from an other photographer. I had before I joined entered an international salon, Austria Super Circuit, and got several accept. I learn that I had to be a member in PSA to be able to apply for the stars they have.
2003 I got my first star in Nature Division and I'm applying for one in Color Division this year.
I take photographs on almost every thing but the absolute favorite motifs are water, Hepatica, Windflowers, Fern and Ice.
My other interest are digitizing images to embroidery files for machines. I hope to be able to integrate these two interests of mine in the future.
Regards
Monica
