Let's cut to the chase and be honest here. I entered the YobiPics Photo contest, because I was thrilled about possibly becoming a photographer. I had just gotten a new $400 Sanyo Dual FH-1 as a gift. I'm not going to claim to be a pro with Uber Equipment.... or promise to donate the prize away, that I intended to use to buy better equipment. I'm in the contest to win this chance for myself to buy better equipment with the prize!

But in the process of taking pictures every chance I get and going to extremes just to get THE SHOT, I've met some amazing people; Both here and on my other support sites. My dad has told me that risking life and limb in one of the worst Thunder Storms to hit the NorthWest in 70yrs, was a little rough on his heart. But I was in one storm at about age 10, where trees were falling like bowling pins in heavy winds and lightning strikes. One narrowly missed me by just a few feet, while he was down on the dock attempting to secure the boat and it's cover.

My photography is not about Photo Shopping what the lens captures naturally to perfection. Through intensive manipulation of what I see through the lens. Because that's just not art to me. Art is life's imperfections imprinted to be viewed again as they were seen through the lens, for me!

Lastly!!!

Thanks to all my supporters around the World. Without you I wouldn't be here today. Even if I don't win, we've won each other's hearts and that to me has been worth this whole journey. I want to wish all the contestants in all categories the very best in their quest to win this contest as well!

@DeanDanforth1 ahh this is not my music. It is written and played by John Sokoloff, a highly artist and composer whos first CD was released in 1993. He continues to release music regularly and has a youtube page as well as an official website, which is in the info of the video as well as video annotations. This music has been used with his permission. The videos purpose was to showcase some of my photography :D. You should go check out Sokoloff though! and maybe buy some of his music!
