KC Nicely Photography

ought medical treatment for what I assumed was carpal-tunnel. To make a long story short, in 2017 I was diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease and had to give up my career in Information Technology. In 2019, I pulled an old Nikon D5000 camera I purchased in 2012 for an Alaska vacation and decided to purchase a new Nikon 200 - 500 mm f/5.6 lens for some birding we had planned for an upcoming 2020 trip to Hilton Head Island, SC. During that trip I realized I could get some stunning shots of birds with my new lens. I was hooked. I spent the next 3 months learning everything I could about bird photography. I found that digital photography allowed me to use my technical brain to get the setting just right for a shot while allowing me to discover my creative side as well. Later in 2020 I started also getting interested in photographing the moon, planets, the international space station, milky way, star trails and night skies and night scenes. I have also grown to love macro flower and insect photography, landscape photography and architectural photography. I am now interested in any type of photography that lets the viewer see something the camera can capture better than our eyes or in a more compelling way. I like photos and time lapse videos that make the viewer say wow, that's incredible. In 2020, I also started the Facebook group, Lancaster County Photography as a place where "photographers from" and "photos from" Lancaster County can be shared and appreciated. I thoroughly enjoy being the admin of the group and seeing the contributions of the photographers in the group. It gives me new ideas and inspiration almost every day. In 2022 I decided to start offering limited sales of my photographs with all proceeds going to the Michael J Fox foundation and Parkinson's Disease research. If you see a photo posted on this page that makes you say, "Wow, that's incredible" please give it a like, love or wow and consider contacting me at [email protected] to purchase a paper print, canvas wrap print, acrylic print or aluminum print in many sizes. All proceeds go to Parkinson's Disease research.
