About Me
- Leedra
- I am a Christian wife, mother and grandmother. I have 2 grown married children, 5 grandsons, and 2 granddaughters. I have been a photographer over 40 years, receiving my first camera when I was 12 or 13 years old. I am always passionate about the craft that I am currently involved in. My husband tolerates my passions quite well, whether it is my photography, stained glass or knitting. I started digital photography in 2007, and started selling my photography at that time. I began selling my knitting in 2009, and needle felting in 2010. I began designing knit patterns in 2009, but did not begin selling them until 2011. I also enjoy flower gardening, birding and x-stitch. Leedra's Photos For Fun sometimes shows these other interest. Photography By Leedra is always my photography, but it is not posted as often as Leedra's Photos For Fun. Heirloom Goods blog is about what is going on at Heirloom Goods, not just my creations, it sometimes includes Jimmy's creations.

I have missed your posts/photos Leedra! These are lovely and you know how I love butterflies and hummers. Hope you enjoy the long weekend ahead.
Oh, I love the hummer! It's as if he's peeking to see what you are doing! The flower placement is perfect. Beautiful butterflies.
Beautiful pictures.Even the distant Hummingbird looks great.
Blessings,Ruth
Hi Girlie, It's nice to see some of your wonderful photos/posts... I miss them so much because you do take such GREAT pictures.
Hope life is great for you.
Have a great Labor Day Weekend.
Hugs,
Betsy
You have been missed! Great photos. I believe the hummer photo is wonderful!!
Leedra, you have such an eye for composition. I learn a lot just looking at your pictures....they are all so beautiful.
Hope your day is just as beautiful!
Your butterfly shots are so awesome! You must be very patient.
I too like the pose of the hummingbird. I saw two fleetingly yesterday at my petunias and know they will be leaving me soon.
Gorgeous pictures, as usual!
Leedra what lovely photos here. I like the two skippers on the same bloom. You think they were conversing with each other?
Like the last pic of the hummer.
Hope you have a marvelous weekend!
All so delicate and beautiful.
I love to see the hummingbirds enjoying the real thing!
I like your picture of the hummingbird, even if you did have the wrong lens on your camera.
These are beautiful butterfly pictures. I like the hummingbird on the zinna.
Wonderful, Leedra!
Wonderful! The little skippers are such fun to watch and they do love the flowers. I never see any fritillary butterlies. Love the hummer on the flower.
I envy you that you have so many butterfly opportunities :) I enjoyed them very much a few years ago visiting the east coast.
As for the hummer... well, not only still a beautiful image, but I can also relate. Happens all the time to me.
Howdee...catching up on your blog..a visual delight! love the chestnuts..the birds...the sunflowers..wow..great photos..
