I'm a programmer, photographer, and otherwise nerd! I'm also really a student, which takes up …too much… of my time.

I've been taking photos for quite a while now! And fairly seriously for at least 6 or 7 years, but you probably don't want to see any older stuff! :) I'm definitely a product of the digital age because the closest to owning a film camera were a couple of Polaroids I got as gifts. Otherwise, all my personal cameras have been digital. That said, I've developed a few rolls of B&W T-Max shot on an old Minolta and Fujifilm which was definitely fun. If I had more time and resources, I'd like do it again soon. In the mean time, I'm thinking of converting a couple of the old Minolta lenses my dad has to a Canon mount for something different.

In these past few years, I've shot a bit of everything except for portraiture. It's just not my cup of tea… I've fallen in love with scenery and landscape and also trying my hand at sports photography. 20,000+ shots and hundreds of games, I think I've gotten good with soccer, but I'm planning on doing some more experimentation with other sports as well.

In the meantime, thanks for viewing my profile and shots! Comments are always appreciated. :)
