Welcome to my stream!

What can I say about myself...?

I am a aspiring professional photographer. I am now fully enjoying my new Nikon D90. I waited a very long time before been able to buy my first DSLR and now I can not be seen without it.

I don't think I have a style yet...But I do love taking pictures of nature, animals, landscapes and buildings. I like to experiment new things with my camera... be able of taking something that looks ugly at first sight and find a way to turn it awesome just by a simple *click*.

I try to learn everyday a new thing or a new trick simply by looking at the best flickr photographer and by reading great books. But I mostly learn through my mistakes...and as you know, practice makes perfect right? ;-)

I have three major things I want to become better at it : portrait (why not self-portrait too), children and wedding photography.

Books I recommend reading :

Understanding Exposure by Bryan Peterson

Understanding Shutter Speed by Bryan Peterson

Understanding Close-Up photography with or without Macro lens by Bryan Peterson

+ any books from him.

You will learn so fast and he has a way to explain things that seems difficult to something so simple.
