I'm a retired biologist from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. I've worked fairly seriously on my photography, going back to college days when I bought an Argus C3 just like my dad's. I now have several digital cameras that I use for various purposes, including snapping pictures from my car (Canon SX700 in door pocket), when I need some quick video or quick powerful zoom (Canon SX50), when I'm more relaxed (Nikon D3300), or when I'm really serious about trying to do something well, especially landscape (Nikon D610). I love my Sigma 150-600, and the Sigma 2X converter. From hanging around artists all my adult life, I've come to the conclusion that photographs should capture some of the photographer's soul as well as the subject, and as a result, the photos that I'm most satisfied with have a reflective and narrative quality. I struggle with focus a little bit. I also use photography as writing research, and have done this since the early 70s. In my opinion, uglyhedgehog is a great forum. Thanks!
