I have been taking pictures as long as I can remember! I think the art of photography is one of the best expressions of life there is. A picture can tell so much more than a thousand words! I really got the bug in college when one of my photosets was chosen to hang in the main entrance to the college for a year. My first SLR was a 35mm Canon Rebel Xs which helped me expand my horizons even further and be more creative with my photographic visions.>This was expanded even further when I got the original Canon Digital Rebel which opened up the digital editing side of photos as well with almost endless possibilities. I am self employed which gives me the freedom to take pictures on almost any day and to get shots of situations otherwise missed.
