"The digital camera is a great invention because it allows us to reminisce. Instantly"-Demetri Martin

So I thought I'd finally add something personal to this section. Its only taken me almost 3 years :) Anyway my name's Curtis Ryan, born and raised in the beautiful Tucson, Arizona. And like most teenagers I started photography just messing around with my parents DSLR, and my love for it has grown exponentially since then. I started off as a landscape photographer attempting to capture the amazing desert that I live in, but have more recently moved towards portrait photography. Right now I'm attending the U of A pursuing a degree in Material Science Engineering specializing in Optical Sciences. So hopefully I'll be designing and building your future DSLR :)

So feel free to browse my stream, and unlike many Flickr users I actually enjoy criticism, so have at it!
