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.

Too cool. When are you going to open a photography school?

Thanks for the idea on burning. I tried some darkening of clouds on my Kathy Goes a Ramblin site. Will try a black and white tomorrow perhaps.

Although I love that effect, and I've just registered for a Photoshop course to learn how to do cool stuff like that, somehow it makes me doubt every photo I see now ;-)
