out now though.)
I've been into photography for as long as I can remember. Went digital in the
summer of 2000 with a Nikon Coolpix 990. (Most of the photos in the albums below
were taken with the Coolpix.) In 2004 I got a Canon Powershot SD550 for Christmas,
and haven't looked back; it's a great little camera. (There are lots of
newer Powershots
Unfortunately my picture-taking has outpaced my album-creating... though I have
started experimenting with SmugMug for hosting albums. I really like their look and interface.
Anyway, here are some of my photos. Enjoy, and feel free to drop me a note about 'em. :)
My Dad is also a photographer (and so was his dad). Obviously it runs in the family. :)
I've begin moving all of my travel photos to a new website, occasionaltourist.com. So, if you get redirected, that's the reason. The new site is better organized, so now it's easier to browse and easier for me to maintain and update.
