Started with Flickr in Nov 2007, but have been a photographer most of my life. Saved money from a paper route to buy my first Nikkormat and borrowed Nikkor glass from my dad whenever I could. Learned a heckuva lot from him about nature photography as well. My big inspirations were National Geographic, Life magazine, and the Time-Life Books Photography series.

 

I'm a huge fan of nature photos, but I'm a happy camper wandering around cities with a camera as well. I love reflected light, and water shows up in a lot of my photos (must be the influence of my time in the Navy).

 

I live in northern New England, love it here, and hope it shows in my photos.

JB I'm really enjoying your photostream. You work is fantastic! You have been blessed with a wonderful gift my friend. Your "eye" for composition, tone, and lighting is outstanding! Like you, I am fairly new to Flickr (last month) and am really enjoying the organizational and social aspects. Unlike you, I am just really getting started "seriously" in photography. although it has been my interest / hobby for years. However, within the past year it has become my passion. Obviously, your love and passion for photography comes out clearly in your work! I am truly inspired! Thank you for sharing with us! Inspired, Jim Servies
