# About me

I'm on the Third Coast - West Michigan

I've been taking pictures for years. I just didn't know where I was headed.
I prefer cars and motorcycles, but anything I can get a focus on, becomes a subject.

Hi Shark. I'm back.
Sorry man, things kinda overwhelmed me.
Personal stuff going on, too many hobbies, too many directions, without any thing getting done.
I tried coming back a few times and got tangled up, with more things I had going on. 
I think I have a grip again.
I have a new camera, moved up into the DSLR cameras (Nikon D3400), brushed up my editing skills, and started paying attention to what I want the camera to do, instead of hoping.
I'm going to start working on my folders and getting some things up here.
Missed you and your shots, man. Going to have to catch up

Hey you know, life has an ebb and flow.  Good to see your back, and packing a new camera!
I'm looking forward to seeing your new work of course.
The past year has been interesting for me.  I'm doing more glamour work as you will notice.  Still shooting plenty of car stuff, that's not going to change.  Will also be taking a Lightroom class to learn more about that program.  

Talk to you soon,

~Shark

Lightroom classes? I do everything the hard way. I picked up a copy of it and I'm going hit and miss.
It does some great things, on good photos and can save a photo, when some idiot forgets to check the exposure.
I would be that idiot
I'm still shooting our local car shows, but the bike show this year, seemed to lack customs, so I tried shooting street scenes.
I've been shooting everything since I got the camera. Probably 2000 shots the first week or so, getting used to it.
I got the  Nikon D3400. Not anything special, but I certainly can see a big difference from my Canon SX50HS.
Definitely, better lenses, over the wide angle to 50x zoom on the Canon. 
I've caught some pretty good action (birds and Mini-Mite football) accidentally, when It was hard to do the same shot with the Canon.
I'm excited to really get going with it. 
I haven't browsed your stuff yet. Trying to clean out groups, that I think were a little uppity and add new ones, and get the flow going again.
I do have 2 years of stuff to add lol.
Catch ya later Shark. Good to be back here.

Looking to go through some old stuff

That's cool.  Long hot summer out here in California.  No rain, and all the forests are burning down.  I think fall is finally here.  I'm looking forward to the change.  I've got plenty of photos to keep me busy through the winter.

I like talking, seeing and learning a few things from different places. And getting to know some of the people.
I don't know it just makes dA feel more alive that way.

That's a DEEEEP hole! They say 30 to 40 feet deep!

musksnipe In reply to Caveman1a [2014-02-14 11:48:57 +0000 UTC]

They're bringing ropes.
In one of those pictures, you can see "tunnels" or what ever caused the hole.
We may get tons of snow up here, but no sinkholes, tornadoes (last one here was 1954 and on the east side of the county), no hurricanes, no earth quakes, and no tsunamis. I guess I can deal with some frozen water.
