phototravel1/Jim Watkins' photostream
|
I love to travel the world and record the amazing images that I encounter...I just wish I could do it better. I'm still learning. My passion for photography was renewed when my wife dragged me kicking and screaming into the world of digital at Christmas 2008. Now I love it! I am a banker by trade, but my long-time passions for photography and writing have provided a nice counterpoint for the analysis of company financial reports.

"When it comes to Photography Jim does a remarkable job of not only seeing the shot but getting it so it is a work of art. He has the ability to take the everyday something and make it shine in a way most people can not imagine. Jim is a remarkable person, artist and someone I am honored to call a friend.
Dive into his photostream and learn what "Painting with light" and art are about. He is a masterful photographer."12th July, 2010
