“For relaxation and self care, I have expanded my love of the outdoors to include photography and in particular birds but also landscapes and objects from nature. I exhibited some of my work in art shows and galleries here in Canada and in New Zealand. Opera and movies provide additional diversions from my day to day work as a Therapist. I look forward to hearing from you.”
