Michael McGaha's photostream  

I love photography, mainly as a hobby, although recently I've reluctantly moved into the professional ranks (or at least semi-pro). I'm always looking for constructive criticism, so don't hesitate to give suggestions and critiques.

I have been insterested in photography since my early teens (about 30 years ago) when I played around with an old Minolta SRT 201 and an 8x10 B&W enlarger. I got into digital in the mid to late 90s and have grown from the point and shoot through the years up to the A200 then the A550 and A55V that I use now.

I am always looking for new friends in the field to swap stories and ideas with, so don't hesitate to add me to your friends list if you wish, and I'll do the same. I'm also up on MSN Messenger pretty much constantly through the day if you would like to IM me there.
