Who am I? Sometimes I ask myself the same question. The short answer is: no one of consequence. I’m expendable. (I love the term – expendable. Makes me think of governments and plots and conspiracy theories… that sort of thing.) The longer answer follows.

I am a dreamer. In between dreaming I like taking photos so I am also a bit of a photographer. I don’t know how good a photographer I am, but I strive. I dabble in what is termed as ‘art photography’, which means mostly non-commercial stuff. Since photography is also a state of mind, sometimes I don’t feel like doing it but mostly it’s a matter of not having enough time to indulge in it.

My favorite subjects are nature (including landscapes), abstract concepts, macro and close-ups, and street photography. I have used digital cameras until recently when I also started venturing into the world of film rangefinders. Since I am a Canon fan I have used and probably will use this brand for many years.

Coming from a background of web design, graphic design, illustration and web programming, I am also fairly proficient in Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator.

Apart from my photo entries, articles, musings and equipment reviews, I might also occasionally post a short Photoshop or Illustrator tutorial. And even rarer still, you – my esteemed visitor – will get to read some of my poetry. Everyone knows that dreamers are also poets, even though most of them (myself included) don’t know how to express themselves.

As some of you might have noticed, I have really become involved in this Strobist business, namely learning how to light with off-camera flashes. Awesome stuff, I’m telling you.
