About leonardaye  

This is just a collection of people, places and events in my life, mainly consisting of my travel photos and places my wife and I visited and photos of our friends and family.

I don't claim to know anything about photography and even after being using a camera for over 20 years I still regard myself as an amature, and my pictures are concrete proof of that.

For some reason, I'm more obsessed with the camera as a picture taking device rather than thinking about the pictures I'm going to take.

When I started out photography all those years ago, my first camera was an Olumpus OM10 (which only comes with TTL centre-weighted metering) which I got from my dad and the main problems I had was getting the right exposure and ever since then....even with the advent of digital cameras and far superior light sensors in the modern cameras I'm still worried about exposure and not paying enough attention on the composition of the picture I'm going to take and ultimately the photos suffers from it as a consequence.

So, there you go...that's me.
