Systems Administrator for the Lafayette Public Library System during the day (Not a librarian, I'm "Network guy in Library Land). Pretend Pro-Photographer at night ;)

Started getting into photography around 2000 when my dad bought at Kodak DC290 Digital Camera.

I personally didn't get a digital camera until my wife and I were expecting our first child. I then purchased a Canon A95 in 2004 and have taken almost 10k photos with it.

Now that we are expecting our 2nd child (a girl), I decided up the ante and purchased a Nikon D80.

I mainly use flickr as a photoblog of sorts, to show off weird and unususal things I find in my daily life (these are usually cameraphone images) or to show off some of my better photos that I have taken.

I also enjoy using flickr for feed back and as a learning tool thanks to all of the Exif data available.
