Add me =D

And also a few questions to help me get to know you..

What kind of camera do you shoot with?
What is your speciality?
How long have you been doing it for?

I'm brand new to it.. I bought a Canon 1100D about a month ago and I've been having a go at a bit of everything.. My favourite I think is live concert photography.

    Canon 5D Mark II. Was pro, retired. Now a 9 to 5 slob. Hated the business of it. It was exhausting.

    Just shoot people. That's my thing. Love street photography, that's just shooting people doing their thing.

    Want to publish a book, but I'm too lazy.

    I love the enthusiasm here! Street photography is pretty cool, but I worry about freaking people out by taking their picture..

    Do you ask them before you do it or just go for it?

    Just got the Canon T3i for Christmas. I LOVE it I am brand new to photography but I'm enjoying learning how to use it. I work on a ranch so I'm having a lot of fun shooting the landscape and animals. Also like taking night shots of the city.

    I shoot a Nikon D300 and LOVE it! Have always shot with Nikons other than when I tried using the Fuji S2 and did not nearly like it as well as my Nikon cameras (menu was just not as user friendly in my opinion). I own a D70, several D80's, a D200 and two D300's. I also have a D2H that I shoot when doing action shots. I specialize in youth sports photography and have been getting paid for my passion for the past 9 years. My favorite glass is my 18-200mm 3.5-5.6 Nikkor lens. I do also own 1.4 50mm fixed lens for low light photography (perfect for gymnastics with no flash), a 28-105mm 3.5-5.6 Nikkor lens, a 24-135mm 2.8-4.5 Sigma lens and my other fav is my 28-300mm 3.5-5.6 Nikkor lens . Never have I owned a cannon camera, although I do respect the color and contrast that comes from them digitally, as I have several photographers that work for me that own them.

    I use a Canon 7D & 550D as a backup. Started doing mostly travel and nature, then got into portraits & weddings, etc a couple years ago. Went to school for graphic design, but i love photography the most. Although I'm still working full-time at the 9-5 job, I hope to make the leap to full-time photography sooooon!! :D The business part of it is crazy exhausting and difficult... I think taking business classes is the best thing to do if you want to make it a career.

    I like your concert shots

    On you water splash/stop motions, you might want to crop it in so it is only on the action and we don't see the plastic container.
