I totally get not knowing how to start, which is why I haven't managed to start my Substack. Well done you. I look forward to following along 🙂

This first post was written over the last three weeks, mostly in my brain as I was falling asleep. I'd wake up the next morning frustrated that I didn't write anything down before bed, LOL.

Welcome aboard Substack! It’s a fine place to share and get exposure (ha!) to the work and thinking of other people. In and out of photography as a topic. My own creativity is expanded as a result.

And you have some really nice images to share in that first post!

Hi Rachel,

Thank you so much for posting your photos on substack. Ansel Adams is one of my all-time favorite photographers. Are you familiar with the work of Diego Otriz Mugica? He has studios in Buenos Aires and Bariloche, Argentina. He and his wife Gabby are friends of mine. Diego is known as 'The Ansel Adams of South America." I have some of his photos and I absolutely love them. Look him up on the internet. He comes to the USA on a regular basis and he's a very personable man.

I'm looking so forward to seeing more of your work.
