Right now i am a learning photographer. I am still trying to learn techniques of photography and how to edit pictures! I discovered that i liked the hobby of photography in 2008. I am glad that i found Flickr because it is such a wonderful website where people can see your photos and meet great people!

I love to take pictures of nature! I really like flowers, and beautiful landscapes.(unfortunately where i live there are no jaw-dropping landscapes.)

I use Photoshop elements 8, Windows Live Photo Gallery, and Photomatix to edit my pictures.
I look up to Ansle Adams with his beautiful black and white photos. He is such a wonderful photographer to look into and if you don't know him you should research him!

I hope to have nice cameras and lenses when i'm older, because currently i am only 16 years old. I also hope to be a better photographer!!!


I WOULD BE HAPPY TO COMMENT ON ANYONE'S PHOTOS, IF THEY COMMENT ON MINE!!!

Jacob

    "Jacob's photography -- his art and vision -- are clearly among the finest I have seen on Flickr and elsewhere. I stand amazed that this is the work of a teenager. View and stare at his images with wonder: what will this young man create when trained and at his full potential? Watch him and I am sure we will be taken with his future work!

    "Dear Jacob, each time you post one of your amazing photo, it's a real pleasure for me!
    Each picture reveals a careful attention for details and a big love for every thing you photograph.
    I love the way you give to each of your flower a soul!
    Yours are not simply "photos of flowers": they show the life sparkle that is inside the nature.
    My galleries are and will be shining of your talent, dear friend!
    Thank you for sharing your art and for being such a dear friend!
