What camera(s) / lenses do you use?
All of the photos on this site were taken using one of the following:

• Canon EOS 10D
  6.3 Megapixel · Photographs taken after September, 2004 were taken with this.



• Canon EF 28-105mm f/3.5-4.5 II USM Zoom Lens
• Canon 50mm f/1.8 II Camera Lens
• Canon Speedlite 420EX Flash
• Canon BG-ED3 Battery Grip
• Canon 100DG Camera Bag


• Nikon Coolpix 995
  3.2 Megapixel · Nearly every photograph on the site up until September, 2004 was taken using this camera and the below wide-angle converter. Approximately 90% of the photos taken with the Coolpix 995 were with this lens. Although now outdated, I would recommend it to anyone entering the digital photography world.



• Nikon WC-E63 Wide-Angle Converter Lens
• Nikon TC-E2 2X Teleconverter Lens


• Olympus C-5000
  5.0 Megapixel · Only a few photographs were taken using this camera when I was left without the Nikon Coolpix 995. I prefer the Coolpix 995.

How long have you been a photographer?
I've been taking photographs since I was about 8, but I took a serious interest to it when I was given a Nikon Coolpix 995 as a birthday present in December, 2001.

Where do you take your photos?
Aside from the photos separated into galleries of places, all of the photos were taken in Southeastern Pennsylvania. This is where I grew up and currently reside.

How do you design your site? What tools do you use?
The entire site is hand-coded using EditPlus in ASP, VBScript, HTML, CSS, & JavaScript. Although I am familiar with Blogger, Greymatter, and Moveable Type, I prefer to do it all myself. I enjoy learning new things and take pride in doing things myself.
