Ryan Karolak's photostream  

I am a photo-enthusiest. I'm hoping to go professional/semi-professional in the future, while at the time being I take pictures because it's something passionate about. I love photography and it has become part of my lifestyle and how I view the world. I strive to improve and become a better photographer. Your comments and opinions are always welcome.

I am a former student of Central Michigan University. I studied Information Technology and Media Design. I also took classes on Photojournalism.

I also took photos for Grand Central Magazine, Central Michigan University's online publication.

I shoot with both Digital and Film (35mm). They both have their uses. I'll try pretty much any camera I can get my hands on. Some of my best pictures were taken with my Minoltas.

I try to update my Flickr regularly, but I'm not always able to do. Sometimes I'm busy, sometimes I need to do some editing, sometimes I need to get my roll of film developed/scanned. If I took pictures for Grand Central, as part of a freelance job, or for another project, I usually wait until they are published/submitted first.

All rights are reserved for my photographs unless specified otherwise on the flickr page. If there is a picture you're interested in using for either commercial or noncommercial work, please feel free to contact me!
