Photographer from Des Moines, Iowa. I absolutely love photography and hope to learn from, and be inspired by all of the talented photographers in the great land of Flickr.

“You put your camera around your neck in the morning, along with putting on your shoes, and there it is, an appendage of the body that shares your life with you.” - Dorothea Lange

"To photograph is to hold one's breath, when all faculties converge to capture fleeting reality. It's at that precise moment that mastering an image becomes a great physical and intellectual joy." - Henri Cartier-Bresson

My equipment:

-Canon EOS 350D

-Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8 (This is the lens which lives on my camera most of the time)

-Canon 75-300mm f/4-5.6

-Tamron 200-500mm f/5-6.3

-Huge (video?) tripod

-Sigma EF-500 DG Super flash

-Bower SFD35C flash

-A couple of entry level studio strobes

-Photoshop CS4 Extended
