    Biography: I'm the blind squirrel that finds a nut every now and again. Meaning most of my stuff bites but I do get lucky once in awhile. I started with a 4mp FugiFinePix and have worked my way up. Let me be the first to tell you, spending more on equipment doesn't make you or your photos better. For me photography is a hobby. If I make a few bucks along the way that's OK too.

    Signature: Want people to see things your way? Take a picture of it !!
