Greetings and Good Day to You!
Welcome to the Pics By Lis website!
 |
My name is Lisa M. Ford, and Pics by Lis is my business. Being a Sixth Generation American Family Dairy Farmer, I live and work on my family's farm, on which I grew up with my cousins and a vast variety of our critters.
|
 |
 |
I feel my life and family's way of life have given me a unique perspective in today's world; from growing up as a farm kid, living, and working on our family farm to the privilege of interacting, daily, with Nature and many of Nature's Curiosities.
|
 |
 |
As my father always says,
“Family Farmers are something of a rarity and soon will be extinct like the dinosaurs, something only seen of in a museum.”
|
 |
 |
This perspective is a bit of something I like to share with others. And henceforth came the creation of Pics By Lis.
|
 |
 |
I am a "blue-jeaned" photographer, usually with boots on my feet and a smile on my face, with a camera not far out of reach. I am often found crawling around on the ground gettting a close-up of some critter or other.
|
 |
 |
I am a “Farmer Poet” and Storyteller and thus walk around the meadows during the twilight and midnight hours like an elf stargazing and dreaming; while finishing chores and listening to the nightly chorus, thinking of stories told and ones not yet thought of.
|
 |
 |
I hope to share a bit of my life and environment with you through my books, stories, photographs, graphics, and such, and hope that they relate to you, in your life and environment.
|
 |
 |
Fellow Farmers and Naturalists might recognize a few familiar faces and scenes, reminiscent of your own farms, homes, and experiences.
|
 |
 |
Those who are a few years or
generations away from the farm might
find it reminiscent or gain a little insight
to country/farm living, and nature's curiosities.
|
 |
 |
Maybe you will look a little closer
at your own environment and notice nature peeking through at you.
|
 |
 |
I hope that anyone who visits this site will smile, maybe even laugh, and reflect a little more. I, also, hope that the Critters and I help to improve anyone's day.
