I'm a Web/Video guy living in Ithaca, NY. I'm interested in visual arts, interactivity, cinema, motion graphics, live music and um, photography.
I enjoy taking pictures of naturey stuff because 1) there's lots of it around here, 2) I take photos of people for work, 3) and trees don't talk back...usually. :)
View my most interesting, if that sort of thing interests you.

"Adam as unique and impressive visual style, matching every subject with a perfect composition and sophisticated yet natural post processing. His distinct way of capturing landscapes in mesmerizing depth and detail is a creative complement to the silky smooth and vibrant flower macros. His body of work is coherent yet diverse and worth visiting on a regular basis."

Extra Medium says:
"Adam Baker threw his muffin back at me. It appears my suggestion for breakfast was a bit dull for him, as he angrily mentioned a variety of tarts, pastries, omelets, and fruit newtons he would prefer over a bland muffin. As the lead mechanic for the local Jiffy Lube, I tried to tell him that the vending machine in our lobby had limited choices, and this hard man was not one to have limited given to him. Adam stomped around the waiting area throwing fresh copies of Us Weekly (from 1992) and Car & Driver (from 1999) on the floor in bitter disgust. We were saved by a roach coach that pulled up across the street and he ended up getting a very fulfilling breakfast burrito, which met his criteria for both size, flavor, texture, and variety. It was good to see Adam happy again, as he threatened a very painful alternative involving a twisting power tool. After his car was fixed and his stomach full, we discussed how this same mentality works with his photography. He gets what he wants when he has his vision in his head. He actually is a really nice guy, and if you ever hang out with him, make sure there are no power tools nearby."

"Adam, your photostream rocks! Talk about multi-talented, this man turns vision into art-form. There's a treat in store for anyone who finds themselves in this photostream."

"Adam is not only a singularly gifted photographer with a brilliant eye and amazing technique, he's an approachable person who's willing to express his thoughts on another's work. I'm always greatfull that he's willing to provide constructive feedback and ideas on my attempts. He's kind with his views and presents them in a way that suggests something different one might have done rather than stating what was done was incorrect. This is a rare thing in Flickr for one as gifted and experienced as he and very much appreciated."

"creative, artistic, graphic, beautiful.... you get the idea of where i am travelling with this. certainly an individual eye with a broad spectrum of ground covered in his work. he sure does have his finger on the photographic shutter... or should i say pulse!
mostly i am inspired by his work though. and we all know how nice it is to be inspired!
keep up the good work mate!"2nd December, 2008
