I was at “Borders” the other day (May ’08), where my friend saw a book titled Complete Digital Photography and pointed it out to me. At that time I was simply interested in figuring out on how to get the most out of my old camera, so I took it.

After I've read the first few chapters I immediately started practicing with a "borrowed" Fujifilm FinePix S6000fd camera from the company that I work at. All Images in my photostream taken in May, and June '08 are results of me practicing and learning. I immediately liked the results of proper exposure and composition as it was explained in the book. At that point my interest in photography grew so big that I've decided to take a photography class, and after finishing it, I ended up taking two more at the local Community College. In August '08 I bought my first DSLR camera, which produced very pleasing results especially in comparison with the non-DSLR Fuji.

I don't post here very often manly because I feel that most of the shots I take even with a higher-end camera still require some post processing or retouching. I end up having thousands of images sitting on my hard drive waiting to be "touched up", and posted to flickr. One day, when I have free time, I'll get them all over here, until now, enjoy what I have posted, and feel free to leave a comment or suggestions on how I could improve my "masterpieces".

Cheers!
