Photography is an exploration of the world around you. You don't need to travel to exotic locations to capture great photos. Remember that your backyard (your geographical location) can be exotic to someone who has never been there! Find the uniqueness of your location and share them with the world.
I'm a hobby photographer for life. Longtime instructor of Digital Photography and Photoshop Classes at the (late) Spokane Art school. I love the diversity of photographers and locations here on flickr! I am not a medical doctor- the "dr. dot" comes from my work experiences editing/altering photos for advertising agencies- which end up being printing dots on paper.
I prefer to give constructive critique, remember it's just one persons opinion! And I love to hear others ideas on my photos. It's funny how as a photographer I can't always guess which picture will be popular!

I love the freedom to experiment that digital photography allows, and PhotoShops ability to bring out new expressions to a photo. I freely use PhotoShops tools to express my artistic idea in a photo, to lighten, darken, and merge photos.
I enjoy producing really large prints on my HP printer.
I love going out shooting with my grown family and friends.
