Dustin Diaz's photostream

Hi, I'm Dustin, I work at Twitter... but first, a quote I like:
"The important decisions in photography are those concerned with the image itself: the reasons for taking it, and the way it looks. The Technology, of course, is vital, but the best it can do is to help realize ideas and perception."
~ Michael Freeman - The Photographers Eye

Pink Pixel Photography (f.k.a. Sunny) says:
"Dustin's stream is just amazing. His portraits and group shots are rocking. He does not only know how to handle strobes, he also shares his wisdom with us through his stream. I can learn so much from him and I am always looking forward to his new shots. Not to forget his amazing and beautiful girlfriend who is a great model and wears the most awesome shoes ever ;-)
But Dustin is not only a good photographer, he is also a fun guy and such a nice and loyal Flickr friend.
I'm so glad to have you on my contact list :) Keep up the great work!
You rock!!!
Love, Sunny :-)"30th March, 2009
