Carol Ann Thomas - Fine Artist
Carol Ann Thomas lives in Albany, New York with her three cats. She works for NYS as a computer programmer. In her spare time she can usually be found somewhere with camera in hand or behind her computer digitally altering photos.
Carol discovered her passion for photography at the age of 15, when her father purchased a Cannon AE1 Program. She quickly discovered that through the lens of a camera she could capture the beauty of the world around her. Since then she has continued to look at the world through the lens of the camera. She owns three film SLR cameras, several digital point-and-shoot cameras, and a digital SLR camera. Her work is a combination of all three of these camera types, but her present camera of choice is her digital SLR. Her preferred choice of composition is nature, landscape and architecture.
In our busy, rushed, everyday life we forget to stop and take a look at all the beauty around us. There is beauty in the simplest things, in the things that we look at every day yet don't really see. I enjoy trying to capture those things on film and sharing them with the people around me. If you just stop and look, you might find those moments that take your breath away.
