I am a 42-year old husband and father. I was an avid computer gamer and DOF, F-stops and the like were foreign to me until my wife introduced me to photography.

I began shooting during the latter part of March 2010 and quickly became addicted to it. I started this blog to share my journey and to learn along the way. Special thanks to my wife Eng who encouraged me and to all my friends in Blogosphere who shared their knowledge and taught me to further this craft.

What a great critter for the camera. Love the green bokeh that makes a natural frame.

This is terrific! I just took some photos of my dog by some tide pools yesterday -but she kept moving when I was trying to get her to pose!
What a nice image here! I never dreamed dogs could be so wonderful!
