I'm an on-again, off-again hobbyist. I've dabbled in film and darkroom methods, but found dealing with all of the chemicals a bit too much. I was an early adopter of digital photography (anyone remember the Apple QuickTake?), and now that I finally own a semi professional Nikon D300s, I'm starting to get some pleasing results.

I'm familiar with the rule of thirds and the golden ratio. I'm armed with Photoshop, and I'm not afraid to use it.

I'm somewhat of a loner and don't often get the opportunity to show my photos, which means I don't get a lot of feedback. I'm not very prolific---I seem to have a hard time finding things to photograph.

I'm also involved in 3D computer graphics and enjoy the challenge of trying to create images that appear photo-realistic (very difficult to do).

I've been lurking here for awhile now and figured it was time to jump in.

Here's a sample of a few of my photos that I felt were good enough to display on my blog. I hope you like them too.

Do you have any film, film cameras, or darkroom supplies you'd like to part with? It's my sole medium and I'm always looking for new toys.

Sorry, got rid of the dark room long ago. I still have some film cameras but I'm a bit of a collector, and plan on keeping them.
