While there is perhaps a province in which the photograph can tell us nothing more than what we see with our own eyes, there is another in which it proves to us how little our eyes permit us to see. - Dorthea Lange
[Photography] is the death of the moment. - Richard Avedon
I am an editorial photographer who also shoots dance events. I use Sony digital cameras, Paul Buff studio lighting (White Lightning/Alien Bees), speedlights, and the Elinchrom Quadra.
I maintain a website and a regularly updated blog at Kidona.com. The blog is photographically-oriented and focuses on lighting, post production, and general technique and philosophy.

I hope that you enjoy the photographs.
About my handle
A perl monger is someone who writes computer programs using the perl programming language. The handle predates my current occupation.

"Don produces some very amazing work.
To me, it's very inspiration.
His grasp of dynamic lighting and posing produce consistently stunning images.
I've had the pleasure to follow Don's work since the beginning of this year and I'm never disappointed when viewing each new post"9th September, 2011
