| Located on top of a small mountain that abuts a large state wildlife preserve, Mothering Heights was so named by one of Peggy’s pun-obsessed daughters (it runs in the family). Many wildlife and landscape photographs were taken on the property and along the park trails. |

| “To share my vision by offering affordable products in a variety of formats. In this spirit, I have “taken it to the streets” by setting up a booth at various craft shows and fairs in the New York metropolitan area. As a result, my works are currently found in homes and offices in New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Virginia, Texas, California, South Carolina and Colorado.” |

| After early retirement from a long career in computer technology, Peggy is now devoted full time to what was a hobby for 30 years. In addition to photography, Peggy writes a regular humor column for her local Audubon Society chapter’s newsletter. And, she is currently writing children’s books which will be illustrated with her photos. Aimed at the 4-6 year old set, the stories will be available on cassette and Cds, so that the children can read along with “Aunt Peggy”. |

| “I am fascinated with composition, and seeing things that others may miss. Getting up close and finding surprises in the details excites me. The thrill of capturing a moment in time and space, that will never be seen again, is most rewarding. It’s been pointed out to me that my photographs tend to be tranquil and serene, which is contradiction to my extroverted personality. When I have one of my cameras in my hand, I do feel at peace, so I guess it shows. Of course, I’m always looking out for the “fun stuff”, too. Because of where I live, I am most concerned with finding and preserving the natural beauty that is becoming less abundant by the minute”. |
