About Me |
|
It's all about photography. Something else I really enjoy is playing Call of Cthulhu, which, for those of you that don't know, is a kind of sci-fi/horror roll-playing game based on the works of the writer H.P. Lovecraft. I love his world of between-the-wars New England meets extra terrestrial horror. If you have no clue what I am talking about check out this great site: http://www.yog-sothoth.com/ I use a Nikon D50 with the standard 18-55mm lens. I used to use a teenie tiny Finepix F420 (looks like a battered aluminum matchbox) for macros. That's all. I got my look at MySpaceOrYours.net This layout was handmade with love by the folks at My space or yours? using original artwork by Marah Johnson. Go get one! |

Books:My favourite writer is H.P. Lovecraft. I'll try and read anyone. Also love travel books; photography books; art books... I alternate between long spells of reading nothing but fiction, then long spells of reading nothing but non-fiction, then long spells of reading nothing at all. |
