    Biography: My approach to DPC: I believe that mastering the style of photography that does well here is a goal in itself. Even more so for a starting photographer. For the moment, I stay clear of the whole "is it art or is it for the masses" discussion. If and when I will be consistently scoring in the high 6's, it will mean I have the background and technical skill to claim some of my images are much better than the score might indicate.

    Check out some of my galleries:
    Streets of New York City
    Cathedral of St. John the Divine
    A Day at Shea Stadium
    Cityscapes
