Hey, I'm Mike

When I was young and anyone asked me what I wanted to do for a living, I would always say wildlife photographer. I have always enjoyed photography even though I didnt get my first real camera until my early twenties(canon A-1 35mm). Now in my forth decade on this planet I realize that I would love to have a career with photography but have no idea how to go about it. I have a few prints hanging in some local coffee shops for sale, I am totally self taught and need better equipment. I like to shoot everything, people, places, animals and things. Lots of challenges ahead but I will continue to have fun with photography and maybe someday when someone asks me what I do for a living I will be able to say....photographer.

Here is a list of my equipment:

-Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi with battery grip

-28-135mm f3.5 image stabilizing lens

-70-300mm f4 image stabilizing lens

-11-16mm Tokina

-Photoshop Elements 10

Would love to have a 5D someday with some L series glass.
