I've been slacking. Actually, things have just been crazy to the point where my 'normal' schedule is pretty much non-existent. I've let some other hobbies take the front-seat here, so lets get an update on things, shall we?
I'll post an update soon about what provoked my start in photography... for now, here are the bare basics:
I now own a Nikon D80 d-SLR camera with the following accessories:
* AF Nikkor 50mm f/1.4 D (awesome)
* AF-S DX Nikkor 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 GII ED
* AF-S DX VR Nikkor 55-200mm f/4-5-5.6G IF-ED
* SB-400 speedlight
* SB-600 speedlight (x2)
* elinchrom skyport wireless transmitter & receivers (x2)
* dual 33" reflective umbrellas + stands
* mc-dc1 wired shutter release
* ml-l3 wireless shutter release
* trusty tripod
* resourcefulness
* creativity
* passion
I believe this to be my calling, to be a photographer on some level. Currently I'm still learning the vast amount of capabilities a d-SLR has, learning everything there is to know about exposure & composition, and then experimenting with the resources I have. I hope to establish my own recognizable style sometime soon so that I may take a ride with it and one day make an impact on someone in my lifetime.
*** Images i've captured thusfar have been added to my albums here.. take a look and comment if you feel so inclined!
In future journals I will discuss topics regarding photography and graphic design as these are the fields i feel like i may be able to contribute useful information for. Topics will include the following (and more)...
:: Resources I find regarding photography/design/typography, etc...
:: Reviews of the equipment I use for photography...
* Nikon D80
* Nikon Lenses
* Filters
* Flashes
* Misc Accessories
* DIY tools & gear for photography...
:: Reviews of the books I am currently running through pertaining to photography
(including but not limited to
* 88 Secrets to Selling & Publishing Your Photography by Scott Bourne
* 88 Secrets to Photoshop for Photographers by Scott Bourne
* 2007 Photographers Market

DEVIANTART! Nowhere will you find a more wretched hive of scum and villany...we must be cautious.
Maybe men all got one big soul that everyone's a part of. All faces are the same man....one big self.
