You see, I'm an obsessive photographer.
I'm one of those guys who constantly takes pictures. I drive people crazy, always snapping something. You know?
And I like to experiment - always have.
Trouble was, I wanted to take all these cool shots, and I had all these great ideas... but I didn't know how to get started... and I didn't think I had all the specialist equipment I'd need...
... so I had to experiment.
I Had No Choice - I Didn't Have
Money To Burn, So I HAD To Figure
Out This Stuff On A Shoestring
And I did it, through necessity. I'm passionate about this stuff, and I couldn't rest until I could get the kinds of pictures I wanted to get.
Ever hang around at Flickr.com or DeviantaART.com?
I wanted to be able to do some of the photography tricks I saw people doing there. All those cool visual effects, that out of this world stuff - I needed to know how it was done.
And I guess you could say I got a little obsessive - but that's okay. Photography is my passion, and if you've been bitten by the bug, you'll know what it feels like to have that burning need to get just the right shot.
Eventually, all the crazy experimentation started to pay off. My photography buddies started asking how I was taking my pictures, what techniques, what equipment...
... and I'd be creating crazy images like this just using my plain old digital camera, while everybody was assuming I was using Photoshop.
And eventually, I was getting so many people asking me how I did all this stuff, that I put together a simple guide revealing everything.
Thousands of people all over the world have downloaded the guide, and used it to finally get the shots they want...
... and I've just updated it, and released the second edition.
