Francie Davis - Delaware
Francie Davis is an award winning, Delaware based Nature/Landscape Photographer and is
known for her spectacular sunsets and stunning reflections. She is an avid lover of nature
and holds a deep respect for all God’s creatures, great and small. She considers her
photographic journey an ongoing love affair with Mother Nature's beauty.
“I find myself drawn to the beauty that surrounds us on a daily basis, whether
photographing the large, bright eyes of one of my several kitty cats, or the awesome rays of
the fading sun as it peeks through the evening clouds. My love of all things beautiful keeps
me constantly challenging myself to learn more ways to capture this amazing world we live
in.”
Francie has had an interest in photography from a young age, but answered her most important call for family life first. She has
taken the long way around to her return to photography, by working in other artistic fields, such as hairstyling and floral arranging.
Once she made the decision to reach for her lifelong goal of photography, she immediately started winning local awards and found
that there were other uses for her photos, as seen in some of the websites and brochures that have used her photographs.
Along with winning several awards since her return to photography, Francie’s photographs have been featured in several

Here is my piece. It is called Shadows on the Beach, Cape Henlopen.
In the distance is the Harbor of Refuge Lighthouse:
"The Harbor of Refuge Light is a lighthouse built on the ocean end of the outer Delaware Breakwater at the mouth of the Delaware
Bay, just off Cape Henlopen. It was built to function with the Delaware Breakwater East End Light in order to mark the National
Harbor of Refuge."
