ViaMoi

 

:::January 2011:::

It's been over a year since I was active in Flickr, and it's time to return to mingle with the masses.

I just accepted over 1000 Contact Requests and have about the same amount to accept in the near future.

I have missed the image industry and the people that add to it on a daily basis.

Please forgive my absence.

Lived in: Colorado, California, New Hampshire, Zurich/Switzerland, Ottawa/Canada

 

First Photography/Darkroom class: 1982 (

2004........came back to technology!

I always owned a digital P&Shoot camera since 1998, but bought my Canon 20D when it was introduced along with a wide variety of lenses.

Hammered out about 400,000 shots in my excitement of the digital revolution and quickly realized that I was not alone.

Somewhere in the world right now, this very second, someone is buying a camera and of course, millions of shutters are clicking.

I have come to harness the power of the testimonial...tee hee hee A first for me and I couldn't think of anyone better than the purple dude :) ViaMoi a true friend for many years. One of the best photographers I know (in the world) with boundless talents not limited to photography. An artist with a fine eye for detail. Always willing to share his knowledge with others while keeping you on your toes with the suspense of what he may share next. A constant source of inspiration and laughs for me :) Oh, and he has a magic balcony full of many creatures that you will often see in his stream:) It's an honor to call him a friend and if I were any better with words, this would be too long to read..lol (blows out of the room in a minty cloud)

ViaMoi. Phenomenal, Outstanding, one of the best photographers whose work I have ever had the pleasure of viewing: none of that comes close to describing my admiration for this person's work. His photographic skills are truly in a class alone and his visual artistry is nothing short of amazing. However, the best thing about ViaMoi is his unwavering dedication to furthering the skills of others by sharing what he has learned. His tutorials are great and I learn something new every time I read them. The time he is willing to give to those of us who would learn is nothing short of amazing. And he's a heckuva nice guy, too! Keep the faith, my Friend in the North!

ViaMoi is the heart and treasure of Flickr, He is why we are here. A kind sharing spirit, with the delight in discovery of a child, with the experience of continents and languages, the buffeting of a live making "skin" in the arts. We delight in his company, revel in the tutorials he shares. We are spellbound when first viewing his new images and then are sorry when he is gone.

Be sure to check out ViaMoi's stream as it is rewarding in many ways: First of all his pictures are really amazing. Somehow he manages to get everything right: from macros to landscapes and everything in between... Not only does ViaMoi have a very good eye for scenes that are worth capturing, but he does know about all the technical stuff as well as you can see browsing through his many renderings in PS. With some pictures he gives you mini-tutorials and if you ask him he will provide a more elaborate one as well... Secondly, he seems to be a really nice person, who always takes the time to comment on pictures unlike many other people who are signed up on flickr... So thanks for being one of my premier contacts ;) keep up the good work my friend!

PERGHHH!! One of the best photgrapher i've meet (in flickr). Always come with a new ideas in his photography perspective. And the best part is that he often leaves a brilliant commentary on the other's photostream. Keep up your good job my friend! Greeting from Malaysia...

What can I say about ViaMoi?.....At the least, he knows how to use a camera as well as anyone on here--and how-- but that is selling his work short. VM is also a MASTER technician and his images have an emotional impact too--and that combination makes a great artist, IMHO.

He does. I suspect his mind never sleeps! I also find him to be kind and helpful and always ready to share with others the knowledge he has gained through his work. Pleased to call him a Flickr Friend.

Stu - ViaMoi is such an incredibly talented artist and photographer - and at the same time very friendly and a person that cares and shares :) he not only makes us enjoy his magnificent works of art but shares his techniques like I have seen from very few others. I am often left speechless by his scarry and provocative art, his macros are really as good as one can ever get, and his comments are always very much to the point and honest. I am so glad to have him among my Flickr friends and will continue to check his stream daily :)
