I'm just a guy that loves to capture creation and the world around me in pixels..I love seeing things the way I seem to see them, and I hope I'm successful in sharing my perspectives with you all...

Thanks to everyone that comes by to take a look and see what I am up to or into!

I do not join or maintain membership in groups that require comments or awards to post in them. I want to know if someone appreciates what I am doing, but I do not want to just be the required award someone throws on a photo. If I am asked to post a photo in a group that has P1/C2 or any such nonsense as their rules, I will decline. If you see that I am a member of groups that have that requirement, it is either not enforced, or has been revised since I joined the group.

I'm just a guy that loves being creative...photography, graphics, music...My goal is to show my intense awe and appreciation for God' and His creations; hopefully something I shoot will move or inspire you as well.

After a decade or two with point-n-shooters, I shot for 5 or 6 years with a Canon Elan 2, and got a Rebel XTi in May of '07...no more devoloping cost!

I love shooting architectural and perspective views, as well as nature and just odd stuff...
