mtyto's photostream

I am currently living in Melbourne, Australia. I got in to photography as a hobby when I lived in Japan for three years

When I was in Japan I started using a Canon IXY Digital L2, but it died on a trip to Hokkaido. I loved that camera and I will probably get it repaired.

I am now use a Canon EOS Kiss Digital X, I have also been usuing a friends point and shoot camera and just bought my own Canon Ixus 801S. I got it so I could start doing macro shots again. It has a few more functions than the Canon IXY I had in Japan, so I will have fun learning how to use it.

Thanks for stopping by I hope you like my pictures.

"Matthew has me in awe. Constantly. I am thrilled to see his photos; his eye on the world around him. Perspectives change, colours jump out, tiny objects become visible...when you have your camera in hand. Thank you for inspiring me to be a better photographer. Thank you for being my friend. :)"
