!!wat_dat!!'s photostream

Written: 02/02/2007
Photography experience: bought camera in June of 2006
Flickr: obsession began January 2007
With much trepidation, I posted my first ‘anything’ a month ago as a test for distributing my sons’ sports pictures. I had no idea how this posting-messaging-blogging world worked. And then…BOOM! It’s hit my life like a bomb!
Thank you, Flickr, for all the new friends I’ve ‘met’ in the past month.
Thanks, all of you, for the inspiration to explore not only this craft we call ‘photography’ but more importantly, my ‘self.’

"I was first drawn to this bruddahz photos way back in December, 2006, and have become one of his biggest fans. If you go back to his Dec 06 and Jan 07 photos, you will see the beautiful and artistic photos he took in Hawai'i and in Japan, two of my favorite places in the world. These are the ones that got me hooked on his photographic point of view.
!!wat_dat!!'s photos take me back each time I view his photostream, which is quite often. He is a fantastic photographer with a ridiculously cool sense of humor.
I'm proud to be the FIRST person to make him a "contact" here on Flickr!
Keep shootin' and keep the aloha, my friend.

"Kyle is such a great guy, and an awesome photographer. Recently I had the privilege to shoot with him, and see his greatness in action! Definitely one of my Flickr Idols! (And he's not just cool because of his sweet lenses, he's so nice and encouraging to mediocre photographers such as myself...)"
