One of The Most Moving Gifts I've Ever Received... In Life, Created by Candy candysamuels
"Tea by Candy"
The self-portrait I am holding in this photo, is a traditional work done by the extremely remarkably talented Candy Samuels

This was the original upload:
Then she mailed it!
She's such a dear, sweet friend, who is simply FABULOUS!
This gift was such a unique surprise for me,
and I'll always feel moved by her amazing kindness.

Gorgeous Videos Created For Me By Teresa Tigles1Artistry
The photos used for this video can be found HERE: teaphotography.deviantart.com/…
This amazing video was made for me, by my dearest friend Teresa
as a surprise gift...
She wanted to make this video to place in her Custom Box on her own Profile Page where she is so very generously promoting The Shelter Project: teaphotography.deviantart.com/…
Not long after, she also made yet another one which contains more of my animal work, and is more particularly about The Shelter Project: teaphotography.deviantart.com/…
And... HERE IT IS:
The photos used in this video can be found HERE: teaphotography.deviantart.com/…
and from a number of other Sub-Galleries of mine.
And, THEN, as also a BIG Part of The Shelter Project she created another video to support my hand-crafted jewelry that also donates funds for the animals, through purchases:
She'd made THIS one for my birthday!
Teresa never ceases to amaze me with her creativity in seeking out ways to support this worthy cause for animals!

You are a fabulous and beautiful friend!

Sometimes, certain quotes & music lyrics can reflect bits of me here and there, the way my own writings and photography can. But it's difficult to truly presume to know me, no matter how much is on one website, or in one gallery... I run deep and I've lived broad...Regardless, for more literal info., there's the BIO called "The 411 on Tea of Tea Photography" here:

This One's For The Birds
Every Spring a Mama bird begins to create a nest on the back of my parents' porch. It's never in the same place, but a place the bird feels is apparently safe. My parents are always very careful not to disturb, despite their curiosity. We are not "bird people" and only know a few types, but usually they have been house finches.
This year it is a grey dove!! I miss being outside and seeing and hearing all of our own backyard birds. I admire those who know a lot about birds and take wonderful bird photos, or who can draw them so well. Here is a feature of some of these birds... I wish I could include more.
Birds are glorious interesti
