I guess he's just always liked it to be in a little ball, and I can only thank him for that. (It prevented me from getting huge even though I gained [...]

Shooting thru Hard times
A Professional photographer starts with a dynamic vision of who he/she is and the type of work he specializes. For me its only two areas: Architectural(which includes most commercial location shooting, architecutre, travel Photography, and in times of extreme boredom real estate) and Advertising Photography(which includes food, jewelry, and most any type of Ad). I personally take great pride in keeping my specialization to a narrow spector. Not that I cant do other type of photography. I [...]
