Photography, good food, cooking, and spending time with my family.
Music
This is were I am a little messed up. Last month I was listening to classical music on my way to work. Last week I almost blew out my speakers in my car listening to GnR.
I do like the Grateful Dead, GnR, Sad Kermit, and classical music.
That is why I love my mp3 player. I plug it into my stero and press shuffle and I am a happy boy.)
Movies
My favorite movie is Shawshank Redemption.
Quick note, for the fans of the movie you know that it is full of hidden messages/meanings, here is one everyone misses. When Andy was talking to Red about getting out of prison, Red's response was that is nothing but a "sh*tty pipe dream." Now remember what kind of pipe Andy climbed out of.
Television
I do not really have time for much TV. Family, full time job, school and other stuff takes up a lot of my time. When I do, I love ER, ..ries, Lost, The Simpsons, and Family Guy.
Books
I can read but I am way too manic to sit and read. If I do read it is usually photography books. (No words, only pretty pictures)
Heroes
PLATON, Ansel Adams,Michael Grecco , Walter Evens, Herb Green, Spencer Tunick (I liked his earlier work were he did landscapes with nudes not his landscapes of nudes.)
But my favorite is Platon. (www.platonphoto.com) He uses wide angle lens for his portraits. (Breaking all the rules.)

About me:
I discovered my love of photography a decade ago when my father-in-law gave me a digital camera. In the years that followed, I have refined my photography skills through self actualization, a close friend and several photography workshops at a local community college.
In the spring of 2006, I wanted to make photography a larger part of my life so I enrolled in a Professional Photography Certificate Program at The Center for Digital Imaging Arts at Boston University. (Completed in the fall 07
Who I'd like to meet: I would like to meet other photographers either .. or in person. I think we could learn a lot from each other and improve our art. I want a shooting partner as well.
I would also love to barter with anyone for my images. (Bands, head shots etc)
I made my first video slideshow and wanted to share it with you. The musician (Elizabeth Ann Middleton) is one I found through MySpace, and she generously let me use her music to set to my images. Visit her MySpace page here - http://www.myspace.com/pianorama - she's fantastic! :-)
