Hello,
Welcome to my profile! I live in Melbourne, Australia and a freelance photographer.
These days I'm working my arse off while trying to continue with my photography and have
a life at the same time. I have always been an artistic person from an early age, its
only been recently in the past 4 - 5 years I have started getting into photography.
I wouldn't call myself a professional since its something you are forever developing skills
and techniques in. I really like going out clubbing, I try to get out at lest once a month
these days but its a bit hard when working full time. I used to do some work for a nightclub
company in Melbourne for a while so I was going out every weekend.
Also I am a Big fan of Ghost In The Shell, just loved it from the first time I started reading the comics years ago.
Plus I love my online gaming when I have the time for it but not playing anything massive
that will take over my life *Cough!* WoW *Cough!* Know a few friends that only just made it
out alive, they were on a one-way-ticket to becoming that Korean gamer (Died from playing over
36 hours straight).
I used to train in Japanese Martial Arts (Shukokai), I very much enjoyed it
since it went to 9 years but these days I just dont have time for it. Plus my
old Dojo is too far from me now, which is a shame because I enjoyed it so much
and taught me many skills that werent just all physical.
I am currently looking into starting training in a different style since I am
been given a new contract at work allowing me to better manage my time (As well
as More money ^_^ Hehehe). Its just a matter of finding a decent place near by
that are worth what they offer in the ways of training, plus I also want to
reach out into different styles of Martial Arts to experiment with them and see
what I can combine into one. Sure Im no expert or master but if you are in a
'self-defence' situation, I was always told by my sensei to take them down fast
and hard so that they cant get back up while you are getting away. Since they
deserve no honour for attacking you in the first place, our style was based on
defence but later on in the training we were taught how to attack and make sure
they are not a threat. Well as they say often the best defence is a good offence
^_^
I am going on a fair bit about this but its what I spent a fair bit of my life
focusing on...
Over time I will add more to this and if you read it then Nice Work! if not then
I dont care ^_^
