A few quick things about myself, I love photography, I like color and I enjoy shooting with available light. I will of course move myself around to take best advantage of light conditions, but I almost never manipulate the light source itself. I enjoy taking pictures, but equally enjoy the process of working with pictures in post processing.
With that said, I enjoy all types of photography and appreciate the talent of people who both do wonderful things with staging of lights and who are fairly strict sooc shooters who manipulate the camera carefully like an instrument to get the best images.
I appreciate it and can enjoy it all. I have a diverse set of contacts in that regard, kind of like my taste in music and food, I like variety.
Now if you came here looking to find out more about me or are interested in becoming a contact, that would be great. However, please understand I want contacts who post and are interested in a real dialogue through comments. Reciprocation is key, both in terms of sharing your creations and acknowledging mine. It is nothing personal, just only have so much time for so many things. I have a great set of contacts, and I try and be a great contact as well.
Also if at some point in the past I added you as a contact, and you did not add me, understand I will eventually remove you as a contact as well, even if we have a decent dialogue, I do this to manage my contact pool and no other meaning should be ascribed to it. If you are interested in remaining a contact just add me as a contact, and if we know each other I will add you back.
Thanks
Lastly, since a number of people have asked, if you are interested in purchasing any of my work, I have created a redbubble site where you can buy if you want to. If there is an image that you would like but not on the redbubble site, just let me know and I will make it available. Thanks to those who have already purchased an image or two! :-))

"Wesbs is like sunlight on a cloudy day, seeing his next shot is that sunlight breaking through, always a pleasure. His unique style is startling , beautiful, joyous, fun, intiguing, thoughtful,and definitely colorful. He has been an inspiration to me and although I could never emulate his work, it drives me to move in non-conventional ways, thanks.

"I must say that I am compelled to write about Wes & his work with the camera. I only know him thru his fotos but what comes thru them is his passion, exuberance for life, a vitality & spirit that soars into his work like no other...his colors, sense of drama, emotion & imagination lend themselves to vivid high contrast abstracts & slices of life that are unforgettable. He also has such a big heart & cheers everyone on around him to be the best they can be & is a complete inspiration to me time after time. I am so pleased to have come in contact with him here....thank you Wes! - Lisa Thayer"

"Well, I've never written a testimonial yet, so this is a first for me.
I chose to write one for Wes because I find myself constantly admiring his work, and pushed to new creative directions after viewing his stream. The content is not just great in color, but composition, creativity, and overall vision. Additionally, I enjoy the larger scope of the photographs that he posts. There is not just one subject matter, but clouds, abstract, water, lines, shapes, shades, contrast, & Traffickeh... lol! I'd fav that one twice if i could!
I'm sure that there are many more flickrites out there lurking this stream and waiting to see what will come up next. i'd encourage anyone who has not taken the time to flick through the sets and collections to do so.
Best Regards and Happy Shooting,
