Where have I been?

Well, the quick answer is .... working.  I am so busy with my day job that I when I get home I am just plain tired.  Likely excuse, right?  Anyway, though, I might not be blogging the past week-n-half, I have been keeping up with the blogs that I subscribe too.  One way that I do do this is with Google Reader.  I also started using it with my iPhone.  Check out this small article on it  Brand new Google Reader for iPhone.  Having the ability to keep up with your subscriptions where ever you are is sweet.  And of course the reason I use Google Reader is so that I can keep up with what I have already read :). 

I also have tons of pictures I need put up here.  I have just recently hit my 200 limit on Flickr.  So, I have not decided on paying for that $29.xx amount a year yet.  I already have several other yearly commitments.  I know I can add pictures to the blog account, but I didn't want another place I put pictures.  I might look at Google Picasa.... wait.... oh my goodness, blogger images are stored on my Picasa account. Well, isn't that smart.  It will be soon then.....

Beginnings

Welcome:
Hello, thank you for taking time to visit my blog. This really isn't my first blog (check out Home Blog.) .  That blog was more on the construction of my second home. This blog is all about me reflecting on photographs/video I will take (hopefully) on upcoming sessions. 

a Little About Me:
Since I was little, I have always enjoy taking pictures and being in pictures. I have lots of pictures in Albums, several slides, and loads of negatives.  I am taking the time to scan in my negatives. Right now, I am starting with my oldest son's birth since I had not gone digital at that time (Nikon N2000). When I was in High School, my parents gave me my first camera gear.  It was a Vivitar 35mm and Flash.  I can not tell you what model it was but I still have the Flash (I'll mention it in a later post, but it was one of their first bounce flashes).  I took some type of photo class after school.  This is where I first learn how to develop B&W negatives. Once in College, I took a two semesters of photography and pick up the Nikon N2000.  It came with a 50mm f1.8(I think) lens. I learned a lot in those two classes but from that point it was over. The money involved for each class was double in cost. But I still continue to take pictures. 

currently:
Today, I am a computer programmer.  I develop web applications but I am not a web site designer ;).  Recently, I started doing a little videography that has led me back to my passion of photography.  I took an advance 4 week class at Bedfords. It was very good.  It really help me understand more about digital cameras.  I am slowly starting this side project/business. I actually have an upcoming session that I look forward too. Each time I have a session, I will post a few pictures here.  Feel free to leave any remarks about the pictures. 

You can also visit my Flickr Page. This has pictures of my walks and from the class.
