Not much to tell, really.
I picked up photography as a serious hobby in June 2007, and have never looked back.
I do belong to a self-portrait group called threesixtyfive, which is most of what I have posted right now, but I'm putting up more photos from my walkabouts in Austin. My main camera is my Olympus E500, and I seem to be favoring my Sigma f/2.8 105mm EX DG Macro lens.
For my "I can't take my baby with me everywhere" camera, I recently picked up a Panasonic TZ5A (which I'm still trying to get used to).

"I have known thevelvetmermaid (Jen) through Flickr and Photophlow for several months. It has been an amazing experience to watch her grow as a photographer. Her 365 stream is alway interesting, due to her imaginative ideas for self portraits. Her photos of Austin bring insight to the area and are a beautiful documentary of the flora and fauna.
thevelvetmermaid is always interesting to chat with and willing to share her insight on photography and life. It is a privilige to know Jen and consider her my friend."4th May, 2008
