_Yoshi_'s photostream  

Born and raised in Rochester NY, a small city located on the shore of Lake Ontario, (one of the Great Lakes). We're also home to the Genesee River, one of only a few rivers to flow from South to North, Kodak, Genesee Brewery and XEROX. The Erie Canal helped build us.

I started shooing in August of 2007 when I purchased a Pentax K100d Student Kit which included an SLR body and an 18-55mm lens. It's been sunshine and rain ever since!

If you would like to use any of my photos for noncommercial purposes, feel free. Really, no worries at all. Most of what I shoot, I upload at full resolution. Well, there's one caveat; I do ask that you just let me know where a pic is being used, mostly because I'd love to check it out.

So, again, my CC lic's are non-commercial so for not-for-profits and for-profits please Flickr-Contact me before using one of my photos. I usually give some sort of an OK.

Take care all!
