Amatuer Photograper
Contents at a Glance
A little to the left...
My first camera was a cheap plastic outfit with the little film canisters you just popped in. In college I took a photography class and learned how to give slide presentations. I've since moved on to digital photography and I like to think I do a pretty decent job.

Alaskan Inside Passage
September 2006
I was fortunate to be able to take a cruise to Alaska along the Inside Passage. Stops included Juneau, Sitka, Ketchikan, Victoria, BC, and Seattle.
Haunted Mansion Holiday
October 2007 @ Disneyland
As a West Coast kid, you know Disneyland as one of the biggest theme parks on this coast. I've gotten many opportunities to visit the park and taken photographs. One of my favorites is the Haunted Mansion Holiday that takes over the Haunted Mansion from October to December.
Joshua Tree National Park
October 2007
In October 2007, I was lucky enough to get to spend some time in Joshua Tree National Park down in California. It was during the fires that ravaged southern California, providing a unique experience in the park.
Orchids
By no means am I a green thumb. I prefer indoor plants who require little care. But one plant I favor are orchids. I have several of the Phalaenopsis (commonly called the 'Moth orchid') variety and like taking pictures of them in bloom.
Rasputina
10/19/03 @ WOW Hall
Rasputina is a cello-rock band from NYC. Melora Creager founded and plays first chair in this unusual trio. I've had the chance to see them half a dozen times live and I've always had camera in hand. They give the most rockin' performances one can give on a cello!
Watch the Birdie!

You and your Canon A520 make some wonderful pictures together! I like your orchid and concert photos.
