I love photography. I wish I could have a camera in my hand all the time but things like work get in the way! ;-)

I still spend a lot of time wandering around shooting anything that grabs my attention.

I try to avoid overprocessing my shots and mostly just convert to B&W (my fave!) or tweak the contrast and saturation to recapture an image closer to what I saw. I have done a little playing around with daguerrotypes and cross processing but B&W is still what I love most.

mottos I live my life by!

I generally avoid temptation unless I can’t resist it.

Marriage is a great institution, but I’m not ready for an institution yet.

Between two evils, I always pick the one I never tried before.

To disagree with three-fourths of the British public is one of the first requisites of sanity.

Work is the curse of the drinking classes.

To get back my youth I would do anything in the world, except take exercise, get up early, or be respectable.

When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up reading.

I hate to advocate drugs, alcohol, violence, or insanity to anyone, but they’ve always worked for me.

I believe that every human has a finite number of heart-beats. I don’t intend to waste any of mine running around doing exercises.
