<div id="bioText"> Hello and welcome! I live in west central Illinois near St. Louis Missouri. I bought my first DSLR in September of 2006 and have had the "addiction" ever since. I am ever learning this thing called photography and have recently graduated with honors and an A.A.S. In Computer Graphics at Lewis & Clark Community College in Godfrey, Illinois. Please look around and feel free to leave comments if you wish. Oh, and if you like, purchase a print or two, or three, or four..... I use: Nikon D300, Nikon 18-200mm, Nikon 80-400mm, Nikon SB-800 Speedlight, Nikon MB-D10 Multi-Power Battery Pack/Grip, Manfrotto 3021B Tripod, Manfrotto 322RC2 Grip Action Ball Head, Promaster SystemPro NS Monopod,stock,stock photography,prints,art,design,W.
