About Karen Slagle
I have recently gotten into bird photography and really love taking their pictures. I also have a passion for clouds and the Texas landscape when the storms come rolling in. Lightning is a favorite subject during storms. I love macro photography and all the hidden detail in these amazing closeups. My arsenal consists of all Nikon cameras, flash units and Nikkor lenses. I have won monthly contests at Better Photo and I have also been published in Cowboy Magazine and Cowboys and Indians Magazine. PLEASE DO NOT PIN IMAGES TO PINTEREST.....THANK YOU

Phyllis Kaltenbach
Wow, beautifully done, Karen! Phyllis Kaltenbach replied RE: Calico Cat Thank you, very much, Karen. She is quite a character. She shows me what room I am to sit down in so she can get on my lap and be brushed. leads me to the sink when she wants water out of my hand and in general, leads me around by the nose. Even sits and waits when I am too slow. Looking back at me and - waiting! Love this outstanding work, Karen! V/F
