Paul Pagano's photostream

SetsGalleriesTagsPeopleMapArchivesFavoritesProfile

Hi and thanks for stopping by to read my profile.

If you enjoy close knit flickr groups where you can challenge your photos against other great photographers, enjoy daily conversation, and learn a thing or two from some really nice, talented folks....please join this group: Chosen Challenger's Challenge. It's a lot of fun and I haven't found a group I enjoy more yet!

I appreciate all of the faves and comments I've received from all of my flickr friends!

I have been spending a very limited amount of time on flickr as of late and apologize for the few and far between comments. As many of us have learned, flicker can be a full time hobby!

I maintain a pretty demanding physical training schedule training for the summer triathlon season. I've also recently moved to Tallahassee and am spending much time learning the area.

My Work Admitted to PENTAX's Gallery
Bird Photographer's Net (An Art Morris collaboration-Excellent Resource)

Several of the images you see on my flickr account can be purchased as fine art prints in sizes 5 x 7 up to 16 x 24. Take a moment to browse My PBase Gallery if you are are someone who purchases photographs as fine art prints. You may find something you like there and I've made purchasing simple.

If you are so inclined, I found the best way to experience flickr is to (1) read the EXIF data as you'll improve tremendously and (2) download the Firefox browser and then download Greasemonkey which will allow you to use scripts. You can download scripts to do all sorts of things including turning your screen black when you are looking at an image.

EcoSnake says:

"Paul says that in the short time he has been taking photos "seriously" he is learning how to see "stuff" differently. Wow! I suspect he already knew about the "stuff" before he started taking his wonderful pictures! His photos are so beautiful and so real and so sensitive, whether of sunsets or wildlife or life. Every day he exceeds his talent with a picture more real, beautiful and penetrating! His pictures help all of us appreciate our world and the living things with whom we share the planet!"

"I reckon paul is an observant shooter. Like myself, he goes around with his camera and shoot on sight. That instant moment forces him to be perspective and able to compose quickly. His pictures though like street photography, captured moments of landscapes too. He has alot to show off of his works, good job paul!"

~Katie says:

"I just wanted to take the opportunity to say that Paul does some amazing work. I noticed an invitation for him to www.flickr.com/gr.... When I saw that I couldn't agree more that he really belongs there. His words and comments are always kind and encouraging. His photography captures ones interest, imagination and heart. I am constantly amazed by his body of work.

Thanks for the Inspiration"
