I am a physician (cardiologist). My dad knew photography very well - a professional hobbyist, large format, black and white. Besides family photos, he created fine art prints, and was a stickler for showing perspective using near-far techniques. I learned from him.

I play classical guitar and enjoy all types of music; I studied art history in Italy. But the doctor role took me away from producing fine art, though it did not prevent me from developing my artistic side. As my medical career wound down, my time with photos and Photoshop had a correspondingly jump up. The Photoshop part was easy – more technical and scientific. Like medicine, the art part is harder, takes longer to master and can only be done in the field (reading and studying with masters is useful but not enough). Yes I like landscapes and the light and colors of the southwest, but have several other projects in mind.
