Danielle states this about her art, "In a world of majestic beauty, I seek to document a more 'quiet beauty.' My nature photography focuses on the many tranquil aspects of my journeys. As an outdoorswoman and environmentalist, I love to explore my surroundings through hiking and kayaking, but I also discover great splendor on my drives through local neighborhoods. I often return to a certain scene multiple times, looking for that one moment to capture its essence." Her website is http://www.danielleausten.com.
