iausaunders' photostream

At the moment I'm 20 years old and very much in love with photography, and even more so with the digital aspect of photography. I live in North Carolina and am currenly attending classes at UNC Asheville (though at this exact moment I'm studying aborad in Seville, Spain).
I've just recently started to gain some popularity in regards to my photography both here on flickr and on facebook where students from all over the country can view samples of my work. I'm the most excited about a slot which I was just granted in the campus gallery for my very first exhibiton in the fall which will showcase my best photographs taken while studying abroad.
Currently I'm trying to figure out if I want to go into photography professionally or just keep it as a hobby, but either way I'll be able to continue doing what I love so much for many years to come.
My big three influences are 1) Ansel Adams (of course) 2)Nick Brandt and 3) Rocky Schneck.
