My grandfather is the one that got me into photography. He was always carrying around a camera. When he passed away he left me all of his cameras, including my great grandmother’s camera. It’s still in the original box. I started out with a Miinolta X-700 film camera. Now I have moved to digital. I have a Canon 50D, 80D and 7D. My interest are Car & Motorcycle photography along with animals and nature, people, landscape and pretty much anything that catches my eye. Love being inspired by some of the photographers on Flickr. My feed may seem like it’s a ton of cars it still has a lot over other shots. Most of my personal favorites are not the car shots. I took a long break from the actual cameras because I was getting burned out. So, some of the newer stuff is with my iPhone. For me I seem to focus more on the shot with camera instead of the iPhone. So it’s about time to start back up with the Canons!

Never shoot just to please other people. Once you shoot for yourself and show your love for the hobby it will show in your photographs. Then people will take notice.

The one thing that I wish would be for my grandfather to see some of my personal favorites because he is the first person I think of when I capture a special photograph.

Happy shooting to my fellow Flickr photographers.
