I have the luxury of living with 4 very lovely ladies. (one is my wife....the other three my pride and joys-the daughters) Although I'm your typical selfish Man, who does everything for myself, I sometimes make time to enjoy our great state of Michigan with these lovely ladies. I am not known for being the one who grabs his camera at every opportunity, but, now that I've seen Flickr and what my girls and my sister, Owwee have compiled, I figure I will try to get as many photos on that may project the man's side of pics from my family.
I have my own interests with photography and have been toying with it from the Pentax years to the current HP thingie...
I try to be an avid sports fan-
I bleed GREEN AND WHITE (Go Spartans!)
I enjoy camping-tent type camping, we toyed with the idea of getting a camper a few years back, and most of the girls didn't want anything to do with it-"Dad, that's NOT camping!"
Well, we have had the tent in rain and sun, from the southern border of the lower peninsula to various location in the northern parts of the U.P. Not to mention points between Michigan and Montana<---my second favorite State in the union)
Hopefully, more like maybe, let's see where this flickr thing takes us, I will try to get pics uploaded regularly. If I post anything you enjoy, I will be happy. If i don't post anything that you enjoy, sorry, but i will still be happy...it's just how I roll....

    "Dan is truly one of the nicest people I have met on flickr :) His photography reflects his generous qualities. It is always interesting to see the variety his photostream has to offer, from portraits, to funny selfies, to capturing nature and world around him, he does it all beautifully. Apart from that he is a great friend, I mean how many people do you know who ll offer to "stand on someones throat for troubling you" :D Always thankful for your warm and genuine comments, Dan. This is just a small way to say "You Rock my friend!!!" :)"

    "My dear friend Dan... we have been friends for a long while, and I can’t describe how much I learned from you through this time, and still learning... the way you feel the moments of life, treasuring the meanings of caring and friendship and family love, sharing your thoughts and ideas helped me a lot to open my eyes more, whenever I visit your photostream, I find something new to learn from, a smile to draw on my face, and in other times a laugh controls me for long minutes, making the whole day brightened with something to cheer about...

    The way you see things in different visions every time, making them unique and special in your own style, you are one of the friends who I most learn photographing techniques from, and have an impact in improving my photography, many times now when I hold my camera I hear myself thinking: “Dan does it like this... Dan makes it like that”...

    Thank you for sharing all these precious moments, the knowledge and feelings within... Thank you for being my friend..."

    "Dan has become a very nice friend here on flickr, and I am proud to say he is one of my contacts. I really enjoy being able to visit his photostream. He has the ability to use the angles, lighting and simplicity of what he sees and produce a unique piece of art to show the world. He is always faithful in making time to visit and comment on everyone's photos.
    I wish more people felt that photography was an adventure the same as life itself and felt that their individual feelings were worth expressing. To me, that makes photography more exciting.
    Photography has the capacity to provide images of a man and his environment that are both works of art and moments in history. And I feel that Dan is very successful in doing this.
    Dan thank you for faithfulness and kindness, and I am proud to have you as a contact.
    Neta"

    "Dan the man! Takes you through every bend possible and creates a mapped out journey of certain locations. He takes perfectly perfect shots without little or no editing at all. Using the lighting and angles to his advantage. A great eye for photography and I am very honored to have the opportunity to view it!"

    "oh boy, lil bro.

    I've known Danboo for 43 years, and they've been wonderful years. His inquisitiveness, his daringness, his need to have everyone love him (even Honey the dog), his joys, his up and downs are all part of what make him special. (That, and the fact that he's my lil bro . . . )

    Seriously,Dan, it is a great joy to watch your photographic work. Those big old hands are awesome steady, and the eye is wonderful. Thank you for being you, and for playing on flickr!"
