Photogineer (Doug)'s photostream  

Mechanical Engineer by day. Photographer 24hrs (even while sleeping - Figure that out). Engineering for me has always been a love of mine. I look at photography as another form of engineering (the engineering of light). Since I was young I have always had a passion for it. My dad helped me in getting the basics down. In the early days of film I took shots but the expense of the film and processing kept me from practicing. The birth of digital really made me re-discover it. Most of what I take is Landscape (non-people) but I hope to take more shots with people in them. My wife is the perfect model as she loves being in the shots and I love taking pictures of her.

My second passion is Disney World. Ever since I was a kid, my sister and I have always had a special place in our heart for anything Disney. Sometimes it is difficult to explain to people this "Disney Passion." I am just glad there are people on Flickr that get this Photography / Disney mix.
