I'm an amateur at this photography stuff and my camera of choice these days is a Nikon D80. Photoshop makes me look like a better photographer than I actually am. ;-)

I really do welcome feedback and constructive criticism, so please: bring it on! I'm putting this stuff out here because I want to learn from it and get better with the guidance of others.

Please note: I add people as contacts for a variety of reasons. Feel no obligation to add me back. I add people to the "Friends" level if we've had a fair amount of communication and mutual commenting and I feel comfortable sharing with you my more personal shots of friends, family, and myself.
