Just an average guy who likes taking pictures... I started this photostream as a way to share my life through pictures with a good friend who gifted me the "pro" account after our friendship was rekindled following years of being in separate states. It's a great way to see what's going on with friends and share what's going on with them. As time went on, though, I came to realize how much I love sharing and taking pictures. I have always been an artist; pencil, acrylics, airbrush, pen & ink, spraypaint, you name it I've used it. Dabbled in poetry, music, etc. too. Not saying I'm any good, but just that I've tried. Photography seems to be my favorite though. Took a semester of it at a community college after high school, and have generally been shooting ever since. Only within the last few years have I been focusing on the quality and content of my photos. Really interested in making them the best they can be. I also enjoy all the great pictures from others on flickr, some of the greatest art exists here. Thanks everyone, hope my images are enjoyable too.
