Over the last couple years, my mom has gotten into photography.  The above photo is one she took from the Maid of the Mist boat at Niagara Falls, and it’s probably my favorite of her collection.  She recently joined Flickr and has uploaded some of her favorite photos.  If you click on the above photo, you can see her Flickr gallery. 

She has two cameras.  One is a Nikon D70 and the other is the Nikon P80.  She has the 28-105 and 70-300 Nikkor lenses for her D70, so she’s fairly well covered in lens requirements.  She doesn’t really study composition or technique very much, but she’s starting to learn about things like depth of field and how to control it to her benefit.  She and my father travel fairly frequently and she always brings home a lot of interesting photos from wherever they have been.
