Hello and welcome to TTL (Through The Lens) Photography. This is my little piece of myspace. I am a photographer living here in the Upstate of South Carolina. I do not call myself a professional or a freelancer. I take pictures. So, I am just a photogrpaher.
I do nature and animal photography. As well as model photography. I also dabble in other areas of photography, such as classic cars, motorcycles, hot air balloons, and whatever else interest me. I am not really a people photographer to much. Only when it is connected to models. Or friends of course. Outside of that, I stay away from people pictures. Nature and wildlife is much easier to get along with you know.
I have been into photography pretty much all of my life. But when it took off was when I got my first 35mm camera back in the late 70s. Ever since then, I guess I have taken somewhere around a million pictures. Yes, that is how big I am into photography. It is pretty much the only thing that I know how to do.
I shoot both digital and film when I work. I try to shoot film as much as possible, depending on the subject. I mean when you are shooting butterflies, dragonflies and hummingbirds, best to use digital to make sure you got good images. Yes, I am big into the nature and wildlife stuff.
I try not to use to much of the editing software. I see all these over worked images everywhere I look. I think people do not know how to use editing software correctly. I try to let the photo be seen the way I took it. I mean I took it that way trying to capture and express what I saw. So I do not want to destroy it. So I use editing software very lightly. And sometimes, not at all.
I would love to sell my work in the form of prints, greeting and post cards. That would be wonderful to me to be able to do that. I also want to be published again. I already have been a few times. But would for it to continue.
Let's see. About me. I am a shy, quite, laid back guy who enjoys life each day that comes. I do not drink, smoke or do drugs. I am not into that whole club or party scene. That just is not me at all.
I like to think I am a simple person, but have been told that I am anything but that. Whatever that means. You can learn more about me in my About Me blog.
And yes, I do know magic. And when the need arises, I combine the two together to break the ice. It is just simple magic, but it works very well. I mean I am not there to perform after all. So while I feel that others are better photographers than I. I am the only photographer that does magic. So that sets me apart from all the rest.
