After turning 45 I was looking for a new perspective on life and a new hobby. I'd thought about photography off and on for years and I was always the one shooting video or taking shots at family events.

Being more of a technical guy than an artsy one I decided to explore and try to tap into my artsy side through photography. The techincal part has been easy, it's been an effort to locate that artsy talent though.

It's amazing how I see things differently and notice things that I never noticed in all my years. Like the north sky is more blue than the southern sky. Well at least in my neck of the woods. I never really noticed cherry blossoms. The only time I would study someone's expression or emotion is when I was interacting with them. I see shapes and patterns and light color and contrast all day long.

I hope everyone else enjoys it as much as I.
