Dona Menton says, “Ah, the anticipation when you’ve been out shooting all day and can’t wait to get home to see what you got!”
She literally takes 100’s of pictures in a day spent shooting. Dona ends up with good shots and not so good ones, but there are at least a few that she can look at and say – “WOW! That’s exactly what I wanted to do!”
Dona’s love of photography started early, however, it took years for her to start “really” taking pictures. People always told her that her photos were “pretty,” “great shots,” “really nice.” Dona decided at one point not too long ago that she wanted to take a photo, that someone would look at and say, “Wow!,” “Where’d you take that?,” “That’s really great!”
So, Dona bought a decent camera, joined a couple camera clubs, took a class or two and started taking pictures, everywhere, of everything. She found that where she landed, was taking pictures of the everyday, small moments, unique angles, singular leaves, corners and details that we often take for granted. Nothing exceptionally unique, but interesting and as it turned out, people loved the photos. So she keeps doing it!
Dona can’t say that she has a genre or a specific style, she keeps expanding on what she sees and hopes she always will. So as Dona wanders, and wonders, at each shot, she’ll keep you posted on new ones and her journeys through our unique, exciting and interesting world. She says, “Keep your eyes and heart open, you never know what you’ll see!”
