I have a chronic case of AWESOME-AIDS. Its symptoms are arguing like a gangster and telling people they suck.

Okay, here's what we do. We break into AOL HQ and instead of the AOL setup utility, we put metallica mp3s on all of the startup cds

Okay so I can't count. Maybe it's 4 forums. You get the point: I'm busy

Whew! All done! I've been working like crazy on my site and I'm a moderator of two forums so I've got a lot of work cut out for me. I still haven't fixed my scanner so that'll explain my absense of photos for a while, but I'm planning to get a new one soon... Thanks for the comments while I was gone, everyone; and while I didn't respond to the 120 deviations that came up while I was gone, I looked at every single one... I swear!

Hope to be around a lot more often now!

the big bless
the big mess}

thank you very much for checkin out my stuff

Thank you! ^^

Nooo! I put my feet up to rest them, not noticing it was a cord they were resting on... BOOM! My scanner falls off the desk.



I pounce on the floor, trying to make sense of the pieces. I think I put it back together....

Nope. (No there was no bang or explosion or atomic chain reaction .) Now I can't even get the cover off again to try again!



I guess I'll have to give up on this scanner... It was kinda bad anyways. (Luckily my parents aren't too mad .) I hope to be posting new images sometime within this week... for now just anticipate what I might be deviating....

Thanks so much for the lovely comments anf the

I've modified "On Top of Hawaii" to more accurately represent the picture. I fixed the contrast and the color, to (I think) make it look better. If you wouldn't mind, please drop me a comment on whether I should leave it how it was or if you like this new version better.

laly-tari - your opinion will be much appreciated!

hey ..thx for your comments.. your pics are great too

Lots of questions for you folks...

Should I do prints of these pictures here? I don't know whether or not I should. Do you think I should sign them before I sell prints of them (or something like that)? Anybody know an approximate base price? And is it just me or do I have to pay $24.95 before I can do that? Is that per month, a one time fee? What?

Yeah I'm really confused about this whole thing so if someone could help me I'd greatly appreciate it!

oh i'm honoured by not one but two +fav's you were so kind to add from my gallery to be the first in your favorite gallery.
and i enjoyed your nice commentary much too. (will reply soon)
and i would like to welcome to Da as well.

"press esc for the escapionist"

Well, that'll conclude my Hawaiian pictures... I don't think I have any more good ones (I wish I had taken more than 4 rolls of film...). Anyways, once I figure out how to make this scanner scan slides well, I'll be getting more up. I have some good ones right now so I hope to put them up shortly (if I don't, you can picture me slamming my head against the scanner

Hey dude, welcome to dA! That's some freakin' awesome work you've got goin' on here, eh? Keep it up!

Well thank you kind man

Thank you very much -- and I certainly did not add you to mine just because you added me -- I respect you and believe that you are also a great photographer. I look forward to new accomplishments of yours and hope mine can live up to your standards.

Thanks very much for the DevWatch
I added you to mine because you are skilled dude... very skilled!!
And I am looking forward to seeing more of you

Welcome to DA!!

Hello everyone! Welcome to my new DeviantArt page! If you're here, you're probably my friend who I told to come here, but if you're not, then I welcome you and I hope you love my photos.

A quick bio about myself (I'm not going to waste too much time here):

I'm currently 17 years old, and I am doing many things to occupy my life. On top of being an IB Diploma Student at Lee High School in Virginia (a challenge on its own), I currently am the leader of an upcoming online game, SenTaiSen (current address, temporary, is [link]). Soon we hope to have that game completely functional. If you'd like to register, feel free to go ahead. You'll be helping out with our testing as it comes out and I might be nice enough to make you a moderator when the game finally comes out.

On top of the website (and the purpose for my being here) is that I am an avid photographer. I can't stand not having my camera. I am never found without it. I've got a separate space in my car for my camera, its case, my extra lenses, batteries, filters, and just about everything else you could possibly need with a camera. The only time I'll ever be caught without it is somewhere like a bowling alley which I am usually found in (where I have actually brought my camera to and took some rather interesting pictures).

I'm mostly into scenic art, using landscapes and silhouettes. My favorite picture was taken when I was 13, and I still love it to this day. You'll be able to find it here titled "Walk on the Beach." I took it with my 2nd camera, still a point-and-shoot camera, where all I really did was set up the picture, not the settings on the camera. Still, the actual set up of the photograph was hard in itself.

I've developed my skills a long way in the past years. Now I've got a Minolta Maxxum 5 SLR which I absolutely love. I develop my own pictures and love to experiment with them. In fact, many of my effects found in my beloved photographs come not from my camera and its use but rather my skill at developing pictures.

So that's a bit of me. A bit longer than I expected but I hope that you all get to know me better and that you will love my pictures as I post them up here. I hope to have at least two new pictures every week, so check back frequently!
