I recently purchased a DSLR Nikon D60 (Sept 2008)and am learning to use it. I'm very interested in nature, as you can see from my photos. Most of my photography is shot in Hamilton, Ontario Canada where I live and I mostly get to these places by bus as I don't have a car. I would like to get out to more places further afield.

 

Update Jan 24, 2009: I tend to take more bird photos than anything else. I'm still learning how to use the camera, but improving.

 

***New Nikon D90 camera*** first shots May 14, 2010, more complicated than my old D60, another learning curve..

 

Update Oct 11, 2011: I love animals and try to capture them doing what they do naturally.

  

Update July 18, 2012....new micro lens105mm f2.8
