In 2007 I made this account to upload most of my new photography. Some may know me as "striving" and a Bryce gallery poster.
With some falling off of motivation and interest in 3D graphics, I began getting more involved with photography. Starting with my purchase of a Nikon L1 digital camera in 2006. Which really does an awesome job at Macro/close-up work. But being very limited in any manual controls I got the bug to get more "hands on" with photography. So in 6/07 I bought a Canon EOS Rebel XTi. With only the Kit lens to start off with (18-55mm) and it lacking the quality for good macro, I have started getting into another direction I have wanted to try. Night Photography.
I have always loved the night time. The dark illuminated by lights of all kinds. Neon, flourecent, candles, etc. Something about the look of these really comes alive to me. So with that being a main focus of mine, I decided to make a new account and upload my new works on here. Leaving my other account to my occational 3D works. While all my images posted here will not be night shots. I do hope to fill it with a majority of them. As well as being somewhat new to using a dSLR (I had a Canon AE-1 for several years back in the 80s, but never did much more than shoot on program mode) I wanted a clean slate to watch my own progress clearly.
So heres to a new hobby/new learning curve and hopefully some great photos in my future... So thanks for visiting. -Bruce
Equipment so far: Canon EOS Rebel Xti w/ 18-55, 75-300 III, 50mm 2.5 Compact macro, Hoya Close Up filter set of +4, +2,+1. Bower +10

Those filters you use are incredible. The lighting is great too. All makes up for some great images.

Hmmm...I see potential for a walking beer keg (nose looks like a spigot?)

He's a weevil, that's for sure! Look at that schnoz, that's such a weevil schnoz, and it's a good one too! I love these creatures, and I'm always a bit hesitant to destroy the ones that decide to set up housekeeping in bags of flour that have gone forgotten for quite some time...I draw the line at them in my oatmeal, only because I don't have the heart to kill and eat them despite the protein supplements they'd undoubtedly provide. They're just too cute...and yeah, I've encountered more weevils than I care to, simply by helping to take care of an ailing grandmother. I felt like I was taking care of the weevils in the pantry too, as I was rather protective of the one bag of flour they'd claimed. Ah, but this is a different and apparently bigger species all together, but it's a wonderful specimen and yes, it does remind me of an ambulatory beer keg, which is probably a part of its appeal! This is great work!
