# About me

My passions include photography, hermeneutics, neuroscience, nature, philosophy, religion and music.

Photography is fabulous because it allows me to meet new people and engage them on the streets of Vancouver.

BTW: I'm a proud Sony, Contax & Minolta shooter.

My main cameras are a Sony A7RII, Sony RX1R, Sony A99, Sony RX10M2, Contax G2, Bronica SQ and iPhone SE! The lenses that are most often on the cameras include:

Leica Summarits: 35mm f2.5; 50mm f2.5; and 75mm f2.5

Contax 45mm f2 or Contax 21mm f2.8

Sony Zeiss 50mm f1.4; Sigma ART 35mm f1.4; Sony Zeiss 24-70mm f2.8; Sony Zeiss 16-35mm f2.8; or the Zeiss Touit 32mm

When shooting video I use a Rode Video Mic and a Zoom H6 for enhanced sound capture. I also have a pair of MiC's by Apogee.

Keep it real... keep taking risks... wake up if you're only taking SAFE SHOTS and start over again... and keep your heart 'alive' in the midst of difficult times.

Current Residence: Vancouver , CANADA
deviantWEAR sizing preference: medium
Print preference: HUGE!
Favourite genre of music: acoustic jazz, hard rock, R & B, opera

I am into writing something indeed... how about giving me a word limit so I know how much shape to give to it!

And thanks for extending this generous opportunity to add another voice to the dialogue.
