About Me
I currently live in Wisconsin and enjoy most types of photography. I started playing with night photography several years ago doing mostly city scenes in black and white, which is still probably my favorite way to do city streets. When I was very young I started taking pictures at family get togethers and other events. My relatives kept telling me to "put that thing away!" I am glad I didn't. Now I have some of the only pictures of some events, and many of the people in them have been gone for some time. I should have been a bigger pest.
I enjoy learning about photography, and just about anything else. I'm constantly curious and find myself researching the answers to questions like: What is Tapioca and how is it made? What is the biggest nut company in the US? Is there an organization that sponsors Hover round racing?
It's a starch extracted from a tree root.
Planters.
Yes there is.
