Nantucket Flowers - 20 x 30 Canvas Print

“Last year when I fell on ice - smashed my face, broke both wrists and damaged my knees -- I could not hold anything or walk.  It was a long recovery, but the toughest part was not being able to pick up a camera and wander through the landscape to see and capture life.   But now I am seeing through my lens again and loving it.”  Says Hubbard.

Grasses - 20 x 30 Canvas Print

Through her camera, Linda sees a different world - one that celebrates life and how light makes the ordinary beautiful and how humans interact with nature's beauty.  She lives in and loves the scenic Hudson Valley - river, mountains, and fields.  Ordinary grass, flowers, and the river's edge as light infuses them can be breathtaking.  In addition, her travel photography throughout New England, Australia and England captures both the unique scenery and ordinary moments of beauty.  “My family has long endured the pause for the camera - my record of life, birthdays, weddings, sunsets or the first ride on the school bus.  Mom has been there with her camera…embarrassing them all and delaying dinner - but recording those special times in one's life.    Life can be very frantic at times, pausing to capture it and the world around us….priceless."
