Needed for some serious macro work & works as a nice portrait lens as well
Yes, I’m as lazy as my dog…
I love all things tech and I work in Hollyweird supporting a large specialty health-care organization’s enterprise network and datacenter systems. Hey, it’s better than growing alpacas for a living! ;-)
I ride the razor thin line between insanity/reality in an online/offline world. When I feel the need to retreat to my place of zen for some quality “ME” time, I immerse myself in all things photography related.
My image gallery displays some of the fruits of my dysfunctional labor of love as a photographer. It’s the good-the bad-and the oh so ugly of my foray into the art of capturing light. Like most things in life and on this website, my skills are a work in progress.

A shot of my post processing setup. The extra gear aside from the computers & screens is a Drobo for central mass storage, assorted external drives, and video post production gear for when I edit in Final Cut Studio. Not shown is my trusty 15” Macbook Pro that goes with me in the field for edits, CF card offloading into Aperture, etc. a second Drobo that I use for Secondary Aperture Vault & Lightroom Catalogue Backups, and a 2TB Buffalo Terastation NAS for secondary data backups of all digital assets.
