I'm no artist. Some of my pics are tolerable because I know a few of the basics. (If you're at risk of looking at them, remember that that which has been seen cannot be unseen.) Mainly, my urge with a camera is to document -- to capture the range and highlights of things. I enjoy the sport of trying to get the shots, not manipulating them later (although that's starting to interest me).

My Flickr Code is F6 l+ cd f+++ g+ sc- m
Meaning:
F6 - I have had several photos make it to the Most Interesting Explore page. I check Flick daily.
l+ I have 250 to 499 contacts on my list
c my camera is average, but it works well for me.
d digital
f+++ I easily have 1000 or more favorited photos
g+ I belong to many group pools and regularly leave comments. I even am the Admin for only 1 or 2 groups
sc- I don't think I would ever go to a flickr get-together, unless my friend drags me
m I occasionally leave a comment if the photo catches my eye


My photos are one thing. For a look at my interests, personality and sense of humor, perhaps it's best to consider the galleries I've assembled from the work of the amazing photographers on flickr. That's what I enjoy the most on flickr these days. I have:
- 138 as of 17 Oct 2009,
- 252 as of 5 Nov 2009,
- 296 as of 8 Dec 2009,
- 330 as of 2 Feb 2010.

My recent faves can vary considerably, depending on which galleries I'm working on lately. Anything from precious babies' faces to piles of skulls and rivers of blood for dystopia. Here are My favorites of my faves.


Out of 330, the following are the galleries I'm most pleased with.
(I list these on this page for now because flickr's early gallery implementation does not yet provide for the organization needed to keep the more interesting galleries from getting lost, what with the large number of them that I have. Flickr implementing gallery collections would allow me to get rid of these lists.)
