About Me
- .koltregaskes
- I'm a keen amateur photographer who is learning every day. Photography is a passion and a hobby that's taken over my life. So much so I'm looking to take courses on photography (as well as drawing) with the Open College of Arts. I really enjoy taking photos but feel I have a lot of room for improvement. Saying that I can definitely see I've got better since getting serious in late 2007. I would like to eventually combine photography with my other interests; traveling, cycling & pencil drawing. But currently I'm out of work nursing my Mother. I do make sure, though, I take some time out for my photography. My main genres are landscapes, nature, animals, events and sport. Along with photography I have also started to learn Photoshop loving manipulating and tidying my photos. I've found Photoshop very easy to pick up and use but, again, there is lots to learn.
