Life through a Lens
Hello all, I could't really find a good place to put this thread, so I figured what the hell. Off-Topic is as good as any.
I am a part time, half ass "photographer". I love being behind the lens, and viewing what others have managed to capture through theirs. With that said, here is a bit of my work, and I hope you will share yours! Since this is a vehicle forum, figured I would start there 1st: This was my baby before the camaro: The new toy: Some of my more abstract work: Have a wonderful day! |

Well thank you very much.
I have plenty more I will share from time to time! Seems I am always out at local car meets, getting calls from local car clubs to do shoots for them, I got plenty of material for you viewing pleasure! |

LOL, I don't think I will ever call myself a pro. I do own my own photography business (portraits mostly), so I guess by default you could call me a pro. I however am under the belief that no photographer is every truly at the top of their game, there is always something new to learn!

Thank you very much Tessa.
I am a photoshop nut as well, so if you guys have any images that you would like me to play with feel free to post them up. I am fortunate enough to have a day job that allows me a good bit of "free time". So I am usually playing around with some image or another! |

Commits weekly crime
|
I'm love photography as well, and am a huge Ansel Adams fan, so I love outdoor photography. Maybe not black & white, though in my early days I did do a lot of B&W photography.
Here's some car shots, and some other things as well. Milwaukee - my Grandmothers house. My first road trip with the Camaro SS down Highway 101 on the Washington Coast.

Those are great pics too. I have a bunch I took in HS when my mom and I went to CA and I think they are pretty good - but that was back in the pre-digital days I'm usually more of the "take them on my phone" person, though I have gotten some great ones that way (just have no phone today to find or post some )

I've got some other sets of photo's I'll be posting up, but I'm not at home so I have to research the file names...As far as Photoshop, I should use that more often on my pictures, but generally I prefer natural lighting, and not doing effects on the photos...not that you can't get some great looking stuff with the effects.
Diablo Lake along Route 20 in Washington State: A trip to Lake Quinault with some fellow Camaro owners.

For example: Your original: Just a little retouching in photoshop: Hope you don't mind me messing with your image. I know some folks can get pretty touchy over that stuff, if I overstep just yell at me! |
