I have the same passion for photo as you, although I am really far far away from the technique you have, but I am starting my blog too (which started as a travel blog, but I am improving it to photo blog in general). Congratulations for your work and, if you have some time to spare, please take a look at my <a href="http://www.ricbrand.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.ricbrand.blogspot.com/</a>. Yours, Ricardo Hi,

i am from Brazil and I was really impressed by the pictures you have been taking.

I have the same passion for photo as you, although I am really far far away from the technique you have, but I am starting my blog too (which started as a travel blog, but I am improving it to photo blog in general).

Congratulations for your work and, if you have some time to spare, please take a look at my http://www.ricbrand.blogspot.com/.

Here is the old text: "I love photography and I’ve been photographing seriously since 1997. I can easily take a well focused photograph with a clear theme and with proper exposure, but my images rarely create an emotional response in the viewer. If you ask me to show you my greatest photos, I’d be able to show 10, maybe 15 — but that’s it — from over 20 GB of images on my hard drive! The problem is definitely not lack of equipment or lack of understanding of the technical concepts. I know all about aperture, shutter-speed, depth-of-field, metadata, color spaces, profiles, shooting RAW, exposing to the right and so on. I have an excellent DSLR, a couple of high-quality lenses, flash, tripod — the whole lot. So I guess, I am the weakest link in the chain — as a photographer taking the image and as a photographer using Photoshop. Maybe I’m setting my goals too high, but I don’t think so. I’ve set up this blog for two reasons. On the one hand it’s a record of my photographic path — a modern-day photographic diary for myself. On the other hand I hope to get feedback, answers and fresh ideas from you, my readers. So come along, follow me on my quest to improve my images and help me become an artist. 06 July, 2007" On Dec 10, 2007 I changed the content of this page. Here is the old text:
