Author Bio
At the ripe old age of five years old, with 3 cereal box tops, and 50 cents, Carol Gault purchased her first camera. With the first roll of film, she learned how to hold the camera steady and relatively level. When that camera ceased to function, her parents let her take their old Kodak with a shutter that sounded like the horn of a Model T car, and she was off to Y camp, taking pictures of her friends and counselors. The Kodak Instamatic became her favorite tool in her teenage years, and it wasnt until her mid-twenties that she managed to buy a single-lens reflex.

While she was in graduate school and working on a masters degree, she worked part-time in a needlework store and became a needlework designer. She achieved her masters degree in mammal ecology and then had two children and learned about being a mammal firsthand. The camera became a supplement to her career as an at-home biologist, a designer, and a mom. Most of her picture-taking was snapshots of children, flowers in the backyard, and the occasional vacation trip. She had a book published, Needlework Dragons and other Mythical Creatures, with Van Nostrand Rheinhold. She took classes on graphic design and computer graphics and self-published several needlework instruction pamphlets.

As a perpetual student and moving to Aspen as a refugee from real life, she started taking her photography more seriously and attended classes with David Hiser, the faculty at Colorado Mountain College, and various workshops offered in the west. Using the biology and design skills shes picked up along the way, she is now a landscape and wildlife photographer. She has taught digital imaging and photography at the local Colorado Mountain College. Aspen Light Imaging is her company that produces note cards, magnets, laser prints, and other gift-related items from her photographs.

Carol J. Allen’s new release “Through My Eyes” explores the true meaning of life and spirituality

Jul 6, 2021 | Business

“To my Valentine,
The Lord directed me to you
At first I thought, how can this be!
But, over the years, I’ve found the truth
That part of you, was part of me”

Carol J. Allen, the author of “Through My Eyes” (AuthorHouse; 2008), shares experiences from her life that have stayed with her to this day. The story begins with Carol’s life, told through her recalled memories, where her thoughts are expressed in the poems with an interpretation that reveals the influence people had in her life.

Carol began writing poems in junior high school, and her poems were later published in the “International Library of Poetry,” as one of “The Best Poems and Poets of 2007.” She also wrote a poem in the “Collected Whispers” in 2008. Two years of college (Labor Relations), followed by two years at the “Institute of Children’s Literature.”

With this in mind, Carol has developed her writing and poetic talents to create this literary composition that is both spiritual and inspirational in nature, making readers laugh and cry. And, “Through My Eyes,” is only a small portion of what she has published over the years. It uses Carol’s personal narrative to show how spirituality develops in people’s lives, as well as the value of following one’s dreams and listening to the voice in one’s heart.

A good read that inspires, motivates, and nurtures the mind (and spirit); it can help readers feel more connected and at ease in the middle of chaos. Developing habits that encourage readers to be inventive, creative, and kind to oneself and others. It’s a remarkable book that can help readers in dealing with difficult situations and possibly create a positive mindset.

Hence, if you’re feeling distant from family, friends, or just plain lonely, Carol’s new release is without a doubt the one that readers should read. If you’re looking for the true meaning of life and spirituality, this spiritual and inspirational book is a great place to start.
