I am a math professor who loves to hike and photograph the beauty of nature, especially the smaller things. I really love to photograph mushrooms and their beautiful variety of colors and shapes, and wildflowers. Taking pictures helps me unwind and gives me an excuse to explore nature. I sell many of these photos on Etsy as blank greeting cards (store name: GenuineJoan). All of these pictures were taken with my smartphone.
