Back to business

Hello, dA! Long time no see
I've been checking in once in a while, but I haven't been very active on the site in the past year, and I apologize to my watchers and my groups. One reason for my hiatus is lack of time (I have 2 jobs now). I've also tried to wean myself off dA and other sites in order to focus more on creating art instead of just consuming it.

This year has been really great for photography. On a personal quest to shoot everything possible, I've had the chance to photograph portraits, weddings, travel, various events and even two big rock concerts, which was a-m-a-z-i-n-g

I've learned so much about composition, lighting and editing that I can't wait to test my skills in off-camera lighting starting this November. Two months ago, having decided to go FX, I went and bought a Nikon D600 with my first ever paycheck. Needless to say, it has renewed my passion for photography.

After my hiatus, I now know that I want to become a little more engaged on dA, and post pictures regularly, like I used to. The awesome community is what brought me here in the first place

Here are my two latest pictures:
