I have worked in the media for most of my life, since the age of 14. I have worked in many facets of the industry including advertising, on-air, production, technical, journalist, and many other areas. I have also been taking travel pics, embassy, pics, and restaurant, modeling, and event pics for about 15 years and was taking pictures as a college student with my minolta X7a and an east german hanimax praktika. I have worked in production and technical operations at the Voice of America (US govt. radio and television) for the past 22 years and for most of the major netwrorkis and indy's here and abroad before that.
My Photography Equipment:
I have 4 cameras; 2 minoltas (one is 35 years old; analogue), and 2 Nikons. One N70 and one digital D50. Before trhe D50 I had a Nikon Digital 4800. When I go out and shoot tIravel or in embassies I use one analogue and the digital camera. better range and warmth. When I shoot in restaurants or at events I primarily use the Digital. depends on the event, the site, or the people.

ON my artist shot, you are right I will eliminate the elbow, but was afraid of taking too much out of the pciture he was showing/painting to runin the mood and the aspect.
Daniel, Thanks for taking the time to comment on my pics. Most of the bird shots are from several feet away -or up in trees - I guess I need to try to camouflage myself and stay put till they get used to me. I enjoy taking butterfly/insect shots, too. Their brains aren't as developed, so they are not so afraid of humans!
I really enjoyed the artistry and crispness of the latest shots you've shared!
