I love to shoot.  You could probably say I live to shoot.  I am always willing to try any new idea, the more original, the more interest I will have.

When I do my Newbie shoots I have been opening it to Newbie Shooters that want to participate and grow their networks.  If you are a Newbie Shooter and would find some value in that, please drop me a p.m.  As with the Models, there is no cost to you, other than paying it forward when the opportunity presents itself.

I have recently returned to shooting Film (analog) in addition to shooting Digital.  If we are shooting something special, or I see something when we are shooting I may shoot it in 35 or 120mm in addition to digital.  Analog work will be in the folder marked ANALOG.  They will all be raw images.

By the way, there are a lot of really great photographers on here.  Make sure you are comparing what you want to accomplish with the style of the shooter.  If there is something you want to shoot but don't see an example here, drop me a note, and I'll post that style or send you some samples.


I also have a strange obsession with the Full Moon and probably have more pics of it then NASA by now.  If you ever want to do something under the full moon, drop me a note.

Lastly, I believe that nothing is impossible, we are only limited by our imaginations.  I love working with people who have unlimited imaginations. 
Peace.

"Inside each of us is a light that we protect and hide from the rest of the world.  It is the most precious part of us, and sometimes we protect it so much we nearly smother it.  It's the photographers duty to not only be able to see that light no matter how bright or dim, but to get you to open up and let it shine brightly through you so that your real beauty is what is captured, not the mask that you normally wear."

I see you and know you are only a ghost,
shadows and fog creating an illusion
I can only breathe in for a moment.
The light changes and you are gone,
and I am happy to have known you,
sad the moment is passed.

And to be fair, I am always late.  It's a flaw, I'm working on it.

I'm pleased to have had the opportunity to nominate Randi Michelle as the Newbie Model of the week and wish her great success with her win. 


Nominating Sogi as Newbie of the week was as close to a sure thing as you can get.  While the award is nice, nothing is a good as having the privilege of working with her. 



I can't wait to see how far she takes her career.  Great start though.
