amateur photographer credentialed threw us press corps. all photos are photographed bye me and are my intellectual property and copy righted. my photos may be shared as long as credit is given to ( lats images). i had an interest in photography at a young age and got my first camera a 126 mm point and shoot while in elementary school selling stuff like cookies, wrapping paper, etc. the camera was one of those gifts things you could get bye selling an amount of stuff of what ever you were selling at the time. i have experienced with other camera's along the way including 35mm, Polaroid, 110 mm. around 2008 or so i started using digital camera's. cheap ones for several years until i received a nikon for Christmas one year. also use my cell phone camera to take photos with.
