Originally from Dublin, lived in Philadelphia for 5yrs & am now in Seattle.

I've always had an interest in photography but never had know how, time or the resources to invest in it. 4 years ago or so I finally bought a Canon A70 when I moved to the states and subsequently took around 15,000 shots over the space of around 3 years. Naturally, by the law of averages, and false positives, some of them werent absolute tripe, so now that I have a Rebel XT I'm really enjoying doing the things you cant do with a point and shoot. Long exposures, shallow depth of field, zooming as you shoot etc are things I'm getting great enjoyment from. The Canon 50mm f1.8 II has been a great purchase to compliment the 17-85mm IS I bought as a kit with the XT. Recently finding my way around the 70-200mm f/4L
