The proud owner of a Canon Powershot A620 since December 2005, and a Flickr member immediately thereafter, my interest in photography actually began at age 10 when I would spend hours on end poring over old photography books trying to grasp the concepts of aperture, shutter speed and exposure. It would be over two decades later before that initial curiosity would evolve into something much more serious. I received my digicam as a Christmas gift from my father last year, and that is when the addiction began. I rarely leave the house without my camera, causing eyes to roll wherever I go.
Being a Flickr member has taught me much about how to master the very personal art of photography, and given me an outlet for an aptitude that I didn’t know I had. I am very excited to now be a part of Utata, and look forward to further exploring not only my own hidden flair, but this wonderful and exciting subculture of interesting and unbelievably gifted individuals!
