Mutual respect of photos is appreciated.

Hi. I have been into photography since I had a 110 camera...remember those? That was around the age of ten, and been snapping ever since.

My favorite subjects are nature, animals and people, and anything else that may catch my eye.

Right now I have a 5.1mpg DXG slim digital camera that costs about $80. Its ok, and everything you see here is from that camera. (UPDATE: Its currently broken right now). And yes, I know I need to upgrade...just not high on my list of priorities right now.

Flickr has allowed me to meet others around the world, and sometimes talk about the subject of photography. I like to see how other cultures live and what is going on in their countries and lives, and share my own experiences of life with my pictures.

I will never criticize anyones photos, because it is your art and expression.

I'm not much on photoshop, either because of my lack of know-how or just an interest of not changing pictures. I like to keep things as I see it, although I'm not against anybody else that does.

Scouting as been a big part of my life. I joined when I was five and stayed in it until just a few years ago. I started in Cub Scouts and as age progression on to Boy Scouts. I was a Scoutmaster for nine years. I worked at Scout Camp during the summer twice, and that has still been the best time of my life. I still have yet to transfer VHS to photos on many hours of Scout trips. I also mentor teens.

If I am invited to a group, I may consider it, but I have a difficult enough time keeping up with my stream and my contacts. So if I decline, don't take it personally.

Feel free to leave a message if you wish.
