Two embarrassing admissions. I do not really know what makes a good photograph. So, I have an even more woeful grasp of how to go about making one. All I know is what pleases my eye and mind.
Flickr is my "digital sketchbook" of photography, just a place to put up images for various reasons, rather like a bulletin board where I can tack up items for friends to see or for myself to evaluate over time.
Not entirely sure why, but I do have my own photography website as well: www.landdeckphoto.com
and a fledging photo-commentary blog here
For those who don't speak Mandarin, my flickr nickname is a romanization of a (slightly derogatory) term (书呆子 or 書呆子), which is pronounced: shoo-die-zuh (not "shoo daisy") ;-) and means something like "bookworm".
I am a professor of (modern Chinese) history at Sarah Lawrence College in New York. I make photos in my spare time.

"I'm not sure how I bumped into Kevin, but finding a few of his photos amazing, I'm here to tell you that he is someone to keep your eye on. Just look at the things he's captured so far, especially "Get 'er Done," "Got Islam?," "Carnival Mountainscape" and the simplicity of "Stop" and you see he's got sparks that make you stop."
