My passion is to play with sunshine and light falling on objects, flowers, sceneries. I very often stumble on a moment of sheer magic that I want to interpret and share with the world....the smile of a child, a beautiful Summer day, a beam of sunshine coming through the curtains, so many simple things that lift my heart.
I married a British citizen and came to live in UK in 1970.
