Like many of you who are stopping by, I'm participating in One World One Heart, the wonderful around-the-world-bloghop created by Lisa Swifka.
I'm Carola, a passionate photographer living in Northern California - however, I am a native of Germany , who came to the United States almost ten years ago, together with my husband and daughter. We're living a wonderful cultural mix of the "old" and the "new" world, treasuring our German customs and embracing the American ones. I'm also a mixed media artist, often including my photographs in my works. At the moment I'm also taking a class in Photoshop, learning how to transform photos digitally into little pieces of art. It is a fascinating journey that I thoroughly enjoy. There are so many things that inspire me - the warm colors of autumn, the birds in my yard, fog, the desert, poems... We love to travel, and whenever we can we pack the tent and the little camping cooker and off we go! Having lived outside my native country - I also lived for a while in Taiwan and Austria - I don't feel like a German nor an American, but more of a Cosmopolitan - I'm a citizen of the world!
Here is some of my photography and what I do with it:
Little Ginger
