Look Ma', I gots me a blog.

Oy vey. So I don't know yet how this will work out for me, I've decided to try something new though to hopefully jumpstart my photography motivation. So if anyone reads this, feedback would be fantastic. One thing I've always struggled with since starting off into photography has been a medium to view my photos, especially online. I did flickr, didn't care for it so much though, so then I thought, what the hey, a blog.

My goals here are to hopefully bring a few awesome photos a week to the table, with a little explanation of how and what, followed by some technical talk. I have learned everything I know today with the help of other photographers*, and I'd like to continue this trend onto others.

I don't know that I'll ever use my photography as a major source of income (or income at all), but I enjoy it, and I take pictures of whatever the deuce I want (much to some peoples chagrin). I am only looking to create a forum for discussion if possible, or at the very least, to have something more satisfying than flickr to post to.

And so there was GreenFeet. I got the idea for the name from a photo taken last summer . . . of my feet. I'd like to think of it as reflecting my still intermediate photography, as well as my love of nature and having grown up in such a beautiful green place as Vancouver Island. So I suppose as a christening of sorts, I'll start with that photo.

Slightly over-tweeked on purpose. I was just having fun with it. I shoot with a Nikon D90, and this one was with my 16-85mm. I let Nena touch my camera when we stopped at the big spruce tree feature along the twisty, scary road to Port Renfrew last summer.

Next time I'll probably go ahead with one of my Australia photos, or actually get my ass out the door and shoot something new.

That'll do'r for now.
