    SAD NEWS ABOUT PHOTOLADY/MARTHA

    Our dear friend and colleague Martha aka Photolady on this and other help forums has passed away. She left us on the 22nd of July and she will be greatly missed by us all.

    We hadn't heard from her in a few weeks and a search led me to find a message from her daughter Terri on Martha's favorite photography forum. It has the details of her passing.

    Some may not have known that Martha was an avid nature photographer. In her memory here are a few of her pictures.

    Thank you for sharing the photos. They're very good. Photolady/Martha, helped me several times, I believe. She was always willing to help.

    I was looking through some old VDR posts and found a link to Martha's Flicker page of her photos. Lots of really nice shots here:
