Short, middle-aged, frighteningly average.

My main blog is Cyber Chocolate.

Ever since I got my first camera, a Brownie Starmite, in 1962, photography has been one of my many hobbies.



My photoblog is Creative Endeavors. I started it to share NYC with anyone who cared to take a look, but it soon grew to include other places and other things.

I've added many of my older photos to my flickr account. They were taken with my Brownie Starmite, a Kodak Instamatic, and a Minolta Maxxum.

My current cameras are: Pentax PZ70 and Canon PowerShot S30. And as of 5/5/07, a Canon PowerShot SD800 IS. Added 6/19/09, pics taken with my new Canon Rebel T1i. As of 4/12, pics also taken with my Razr Maxx phone.

New camera added 5/27/13: Canon Rebel T5i, replacing my Rebel T1i.

If I don't join a group I'm invited to join, it's simply because I don't think I'll be able to come up with appropriate photos or because there are too many rules to keep track of. I do appreciate the offers, though. And while I'm happy to add an invited photo to a group, I really don't like the animated graphics that accompany many of those invitations and will delete them. Thanks for understanding.

I also won't add invited photos to groups that don't have public pools. If a group goes private after I join, so be it, but I can't join every group and I don't think it's fair that neither I nor others not in a group can see my photos posted in non-public pools.
