Thanks guys :)

Stock photography? yeah I did see that in those shots.. Probably because stock photography doesn't interest me very much. I try to be an artist more than a stock photographer but i've always been a perfectionnist... sometimes a trashy subject comes out clean after post-processing :)

please don't misunderstand - i meant that to be a compliment. but i also realize that when you're shooting for art, the last thing you want is to feel like the image is ordinary and can be used anywhere...which is what i feel most stock photography is. that's why i said "hi-end." i could see those images on a very expensive, well-produced marketing piece that - while it might not require specific images - requires very good photography.

hope that makes sense!

Don't worry, it's fine :) I don't consider myself an artist, i've been into photography for 9-10months and still learning everyday. Thanks for your input :)

dude....if you are producing the kind of work i saw in your gallery - especially the one with the spray can - after only 9-10 months, i'd say you're a natural!

That's the nicest comment I ever had for my photography ! You've just made my day :) Thank you.

Last year I bought a Canon P&S A610, I knew I liked photography but never had a camera.. After 2 weeks I was hooked. After a month I started to build my website... Most of my stuff on my gallery was done with the A610. A month ago, I bought a 30D and 24-105mm lens... I'm still hooked, I love photography.. I think about my next shots all the time...

A passion for sure. I'm even selling my track car to pay for my new equipement. I'm a car lover, but photography takes all my time now.
