"Photography is an investigation of both the outer and the inner worlds. The first experiences with the camera involve looking at the world beyond the lens, trusting the instrument will 'capture' something 'seen.' The terms shoot and take are not accidental; they represent an attitude of conquest and appropriation. Only when the photographer grows into perception and creative impulse does the term make define a condition of empathy between the external and the internal events."

by Ansel Easton Adams (1902-1984). An American photographer and environmentalist,
best known for his black-and-white photographs of the American West, especially in Yosemite National Park.

Simply, me. Sharing the same interest in photography and seeing places through my lens. Leaving comments and making my work your fave is appreciated. Thank you for clicking and streaming my images. Currently using a Canon PowerShot S5 IS and Picnik for minimal editing. Previous camera was a Canon PowerShot A520 & S400

    "Firstly, Happy Birthday, Arthur / Cocoy! (Nov 9). A fellow Scorpio. He's among my true old friends in flickr. He may disappear and reappear but rest assured he'll comment on the photos he missed during his absence. Arthur's stream is filled with life in the San Bernardino County in Southern California. His most trusted companion are his camera and his Toyota Sequoia. Perfect combination. Lastly, I'm glad to have known Arthur , for he's a true flickr friend."

    "Arthur has been a wonderful flickr friend for about 1-1/2 years. Arthur has a fabulous photostream with his beautiful nature photos to spectacular landscapes. He is such a fantastic photographer. I look forward to his posts and his comments. He never fails to be a good flickr friend even when he is too busy with school and family. When he does find the time he always remembers to leave comments on all the photos he has missed. He is the best kind of flickr friend. Thank you Arthur for being a good friend."
