Chris_A_G_1976's photostream
|
I am a very peaceful guy who has such a passion for art and design. I've been a graphic designer for years, and a sketch artist before that. Normally I sketch characters that would appear in stories that I create and write.
I am a Christian man who Loves the Lord Jesus Christ. I cannot do anything without Him for He is my salvation who saved me from a place called Hell. All of my talent shows on my stream I would like to give the praise honor and glory to my Lord because it is He who gives it and He who can take it away.
I would describe myself as a dreamer. I feel that a writer should always dream. During the day, and during the night. I am currently writing my first novel ever and hope to have it published soon. Possibly in different languages for other countries to enjoy.
It seems I always like to find beauty in everything. Photography is now my new hobby that I hope will maybe become something more serious. I don't mean to sound harsh, but I am not on flickr to meet people or to make long term friendships. I am here for inspiration. You can feel free to message me if you feel the need or if you just wish to. I am always open for some good conversations.
When I first joined flickr a few years ago I started out with a Canon XSi which I have loved. It has been hard parting with it as I have traded it in at my local camera store for a Nikon D3100 which I do love and has performed much better than my XSi. Many would think that I would have moved to an advanced level camera but with the change of technology I felt that Nikon D3100 would suffice for now. It does take better quality images that my XSi. Not to be confused with a dislike for Canon. I still love Canon cameras, but thought I would try my hand in a new brand of photo imagery!

"Chris!
He has been a great flickr friend of mine and i guess for everybody. He always brings rainbow wherever he goes. Lovely and supporting comments from him always make, not only me but everyone, smile and proud.
i adore his macro photographs. They are totally brilliant, and of course his drawings which are stunning and very creative! He truly is a talented artist.
A bunch of thanks will not be enough for your kindness, Chris. Thanks for being a great great flickr friend and an amazing artist!

Thomas James Harvey says:
"I have long been a fan of Chris' work for the simple reason that it is utterly beautiful and so deep with meaning. Every photograph is imbued with such meaning that it speaks volumes about the photographer himself, and of his beliefs and values. In addition to this, his work is technically flawless - I know that when I see work by Chris that I will be blown away - his macro and long-exposure photographs are always beautifully composed and well lit, with a fine attention to the effective use of sharpness and clarity."

"Wow what to say about Chris. well theres a lot that you should know about him but one of the things that i love about him and his photography is that they are both original! his pieces are just breath taking and he ,himself is original(;
Chris likes taking pictures of nature people and anything else he can find! He is one of the best Photographers i am a contact with! He is not only a good photographer but he is such a sweet and kind guy who loves God with his whole heart, as you can tell by his verses and the way he talks and adds such sweet comments to everyones pages!
Chris inspires me so much with all his pictures and if you just take the time to look at his picture i promise you that you will be inspired aswell!
I can tell that Chris will go far and accomplish his dream of becoming a store photographer owner as he sets up his own business not only does he have the personality to run his own business but he also strives to become better then he already is everyday! plus he has God right beside him(;
so you can stop reading this testomonial right now and go look at his pictures and be sure to comment! Go! (;"17th September, 2011

"Chris, oh dear Chris. What shall I say to thee, that has not already been said?
Well..Chris is awesome. Shall I tell you why?
He is an incredible, talented photographer. His unique approach shines through his pictures. Chris always steps outside the box, and brings his own personal touch to his pictures. He can take something so simple, and create a masterpeice.
I've only known Chris for a short time now, and I have found him to be one of the most friendly people here on flikr. He always has such kind and encouraging words, and his comments always bring a smile to my face.
I'm so glad that I have Chris as a contact, I always look forward to seeing his fresh perspective on life.
Keep it up! God bless you friend. (:"11th August, 2011

"Chris, oh, Chris. What can I say that has not already been said?
So, I haven't known Chris for more than a few weeks. But he is absolutely the sweetest and kindest contact I have.
Every time I see a new comment from him I know I'm going to smile. Don't ask how I know. It's just one of those things that you will know once you add him. :)
His photography is amazing. He has a way with a camera. I'll never know how he does it.
Thank you for all your kind comments. They always make me feel better about the picture I've taken. :)
Add him, comment his photos and art. Now. You won't regret it. :D
