    About the Book

    Edit

    Priscilla Fontechia, Ms Pixie to those on her photography website Flickr, considers herself to be an "accidental" photographer. She says that she rarely goes out looking for photo opportunities; she is surrounded by nature and wildlife at her lake front home in Western Kentucky. There, she finds a multitude of subjects on which to focus her Canon S3 IS camera.



    Sunsets over Lake Barkley, flowers, a variety of wild animals, birds, flowers and insects are images that are of interest to this transplanted Illinois city girl. Priscilla has only to look out the window to capture breathtaking sunsets and witness the changing seasons. Flowers, "the ones the deer and other critters don't eat," add brilliant color to her collection and are a draw for Hummingbirds and butterflies.



    A myriad of wildlife seem to co-exist side

    by side near and around Priscilla's home and provide her with great entertainment as well as subjects for her passion, photography.
