I'm Jay Joslin in Asheville NC, a sentimental fool, known for Quixotic jaunts into the Unknown, who walks the squiggly path of the Fool for the sake of all things sacredly silly... which, oddly enough, includes you.

I work in the mental health field, and some camera time really helps me to decompress.

Oh, I'm one of those mystical-leftie-homos too who writes books. Isn't that fun?

I use a Sony Alpha 350 and a Sanyo Xacti HD2, and these are usually tagged as such. Being that I like to emphasize certain fascinating qualities, colors and shapes, I do not shy away from using Photoshop. All in all, this does not make me a bad person.

My first real "show" of pix ran from January to March 2007 in Asheville. It was a great experience, and all of the 33 pix were originally posted in Flickr. A goodly portion of profits from the show were used to create art scholarships for others.

    "jay as a photographer and human is a spiritual viewer. in his photos i see the search for an essence even when the shot seems to be just a snap of a bug or leaf or rock, because you know he looked at it, intensely. his happy infectious smile and spirit will eventually wear down your cynicism if you harbor it, and thru his eyes we see part of our larger selves. Thanks, Jay. I like where you've taken your photography."

    "Jay's photos show consistent vision and exploration, as well as being quite beautiful. He's probably my most-favorited person on flickr, and if I could click on him and put a big star on his head on real life, I would do that too."
