In 2005, Lynda, Robert, and their dogs, Cheyenne and Mickey, moved from central California to the Oregon coast where they make their home today. Formerly a Program Analyst for California 's Department of Corrections, Lynda is today enjoying the pursuit of a life long interest in photography. Lynda finds her inspiration in capturing natural things of beauty, such as sea and wildlife and the beautiful rocky coast of Oregon. She and Robert (better known as Bob to their friends) enjoy traveling in search of new subjects of interest to photograph and to share with others through her recorded images.

Lynda's sense of adventure and love of animals large and small, has led her to seek out and photograph whenever possible, wildlife in their natural habitat. Lynda and Bob have traveled north to Alaskan waters and south as far as Central America, capturing with her lens, creatures as small as butterflies of the Rain Forest and as large as the graceful and magnificent Humpback and Gray whales.

Lynda's innate sense of what makes a photograph powerful is reflected as well within her architectural studies of the ancient Mayan Ruins of Central America and the villages of the Sierra Madre', Mexico. Perusing through Lynda's photographs you can almost step onto the dock of a Caribbean beach and drink in the beauty of the most beautiful, turquoise waters you will ever experience, or immerse yourself in the delicate beauty of the butterflies of the Rain Forest. If the northwest is your cup of tea, then use your imagination and picture yourself on the beautiful, rugged Oregon coast with it's amazing sea cliffs and winter's pounding surf, to the alternately calm seas of late summer that hold fascinating and often times beautiful coastal tide pools.

Lynda's lifetime love of the sea and the amazing, intelligent and graceful whales that live and migrate within those waters, has led Lynda and Bob to choose the small and less intrusive Zodiac to capture close-up photographs of these magnificent animals. Her lens has captured pods of humpback whales bubble net feeding in Alaskan waters, and in the spring, Humpback and Gray whales enjoying the warm waters of the Gulf of Mexico . Aware to stay a respectful distance from the mothers and their calves, Lynda has photographed the gentle giants as they glide through the waters, and as they gracefully dive beneath the waves, barely stirring the waters.

Be sure to check back from time to time to see what new additions Lynda has added to her ever expanding photographic collection of nature's creatures, great and small, and of the raw beauty of this extraordinary planet that is ours.

Lynda is an award winning photographer and member of the Bay Area Artist's Association, Coos Art Museum, Curry Arts Association and the Pelican Bay Artists Association.

Her work is available at many of the west coast's finest art galleries, or through this web site.
