Blog 6 flickr

I've loved photography since I was pretty young. I used to have a dark room and loved staying up all night working in it with my friend, Gary. In college and had several photography classes and always enjoyed the time I'd take to take and make artistic images. In my advertising career, I used the camera less, but got to work with some really good photographers. Then...not so much.

I think I've taken so few pictures as an adult because I had become impatient with the whole, film, processing, printing, cropping, dodge/burning and storing process. I love PhotoShop, but I hate the input/output stuff.

I have a digital camera, but it's pretty basic and I'm not enjoying the 'capture' process. I got my wife a great digital SLR, but she loves it so much that she doesn't want me to use it.

Flickr might be the solution, along with an investment into a great camera. I definitely could use more visual representation for my classes which tend to be very 'text-centric.' This could apply whether I take or merely find and credit the images.
