Recently moved to Franklin, TN. Looking forward to exploring Nashville region.

I've been a serious photography buff since high school, when I worked for the local newspaper mostly shooting high school sports, often with a 2 1/4 Roloflex (try following a charging football player in a twin-lens reflex viewfinder). While I went to the best photojournalism school in the world (Western Kentucky University), I ultimately ended up more on the reporting and editing side.

After years of Nikon SLRs for film, I'm now devoted to my D200. My interests are varied, but a few have noticed a pattern of reflections, red and action.

I started the Strong Horizontal group because I enjoy strongly cropped photos such as this one:

I'm also on Twitter as @neilbudde.
