Photographer @ JourneyZing & Attorney @ Herring Law Firm
Des Moines, Iowa Area
I practice law in Iowa mainly in the area of civil rights, discrimination, employment law and handle litigation and appeals in state and federal forums.
Increasingly, I am involved in photography and travel, providing services as a travel researcher and selling fine art photography, mainly from my travels. My photography website is: < http://www.journeyzing.com > and images may be purchased at my Gallery site, <http://gallery.journeyzing.com>.
I, along with two other artists [Dr. Jacqueline Stoken & Beverly Westra] hold fine art shows and sales several times during the year. Our website is < http://www.3womenart.com > and it has more details and pictures of our work and information about our occasional shows.
My Flickr images are at <http://www.flickr.com/photos/victoriajz/>
Thought to remember:
People will forget what you said. People will forget what you did. But people will never forget how you made them feel. Maya Angelou.
