"A great photograph is a full expression of what one feels about what is being photographed in the deepest sense, and is, thereby, a true expression of what one feels about life in its entirety." ~ Ansel Adams
"Most things in life are moments of pleasure and a lifetime of embarrassment; photography is a moment of embarrassment and a lifetime of pleasure." ~ Tony Benn
Photography is an extension of my passion for nature and people. I love capturing special & unforgettable moments and telling a story with my images. I became hopelessly in love with photography at a young age as soon as I saw my uncle's photos using his 35mm. The pictures are what draw my attention everytime I flip through magazines. My first Digital camera was a Canon A70, it was a great point and shoot camera that has captured some memorable photos of my late mother and my late brother. I love all my cameras. Actually, I'm obsessed with them. They are the tools that make it possible for me to capture those moments in life I fall in love with... Moments that would be lost otherwise.
I am by no means a professional photographer, I'm trying to learn all the different aspects of photography; Flickr is a great site that allows me to do that, I enjoy viewing all the inspiring photos posted by my fellow Flickr friends. Someday I hope to be able to capture the finest visual images with unparalleled quality and style.
I'm sure you all enjoy feedback as much as I do. And I welcome all beneficial and helpful criticism. But if you have something insulting/harsh to say, just don't say it at all. There's an appropriate way of sharing your opinion. Mean commentary is certainly something I don't appreciate.
I try to keep my number of contacts as low as possible so I can have more time visiting their photostreams. I do however welcome new contacts. But if you add me without taking the time to visit my photostream, please don't waste your time and mine. I will not allow members who do not have photos in their photostreams to fave mine.
