About the Author
‘…My friends I'll say it clear. I've lived a life that's full. I traveled each and every country I've loved, I've laughed and cried. I've had my fill of moments. And now may I say it in my shy way. In this way, enjoy my Friends…’ http://labelleaurore.wordpress.com/
I am Suzanne Pepin and live in Mexico. My passion for photography started in 2004 while backpacking in Italy and Greece, with my little Olympus camera. I was amazed of the end result of those pictures taken. I then realize that I had an eye for seeing different objects that others would not notice. In 2008, I received as a gift my Canon Rebel T1i and have been in love ever since with this wonderful ‘Rebel’ that have a mind of its own.
