Soooo...I've been creeping photos here for the past year or so ;) and have been amazed at the creativity and talent I've seen.
Must have been a combination of the fact that I am actively avoiding the Calgary Stampede and that it rained all day, that I finally made the leap to try to fire some of my own photos in here!
I've been taking photos since I can remember...and actually saw my first camera (a little brown and orange wind up Kodak) at an antique store a few months ago. After I threw up a little, I managed to take a picture of it with what I refer to as my "big girl camera"...a Canon 40D and my first foray into all things digital.
Anyway...I'm really excited to be here and am always looking for feedback so I can become better!
Welcome to DPC from Toronto. I have been to Calgary more than 100 hundred times for work. I practically lived there while preparing for the 1988 Olympics. Partied there more than any other place - great people, great city, great photography. It will be wonderful to see some beautiful images coming from your fair city.
I guess i should speak up to. I'm also from "Cowtown" and have been lurking around these forums for a while (august 2004 i believe it was). I too have been most amazed by the imagination demonstrated in the pictures posted on this site. One of these days soon, I'll actually get around to posting a few pictures into my profile, just as soon as i clean a few of them up so as to approach the minimum levels of talent that are exhibited on this site.
