I'm using flickr to appreciate and share photography with my family and friends and the world wide community. Meeting poets from Portugal as well as all you photographers from around new mexico and the world is such a thrill. Thank you for sharing!
I use a Canon Digital Rebel XT and 70D. Since November 2006, I have begun to learn and using a High Dynamic Range (HDR) technique pretty regularly. I enjoy a lot of software that I also use Photoshop, Photomatrix, Picasa, Image Composite Editor, and others for processing images. Previously I used a Sony Cybershot 3.3 MP DSC-S75. I appreciate a stylized image rather than pure reality and enjoy colors and effects and hope you'll enjoy it too.
Flickr has inspired me to take up photography as a hobby again. I copyright my photos as they are creative expressions that add, hopefully, to a unique collection of art. Many computer crashes over the years resulted in me losing most high quality versions of the images you see here on Flickr. Please let me know if you want to use one of my images.
Thank you for sharing your works and your comments from across this planet of ours. Together, we can continue to work towards a free, caring and beautiful world - its all we got.

Joel's photography is a magical mixture of bright colors and amazing landscapes. Just watching his work will hook you and take you to places you only see in dreams. Almost everything I have learned about HDR and other techniques I owe to the master, that is why to me, Joe's has rightfully earned the honorable title of "El Maistro."

One of Joel's photos was my very first Fave on Flickr, and Joel is still at the top of the list of my Fave people on Flickr.
