Howdy howdy! I am a long time MTBR.com forum poster who has always loved to snap and share photos of my friends on mountain bikes. In August of 2011, I took the jump from a P&S to a DSLR, and WOW! The purchase of the Canon T3i rocked my world like nothing has in a long, long time. As a scientist/engineer type, my mind is now always thinking of the next shot, a better way to get the previous shot, gear I need to buy, methods I need to try, etc. Learning something new has never been so much fun!! My favorite subjects are mountain bikers, dogs, and astro-landscapes. Most recently, my Dad and I just went in together on a 5D Mark III. I hope to share some of my images soon!
