Hey Everyone, the names Rylan and I'm a photographic hobbyist living in South Australia. My photography is a release from my work and study and allows me to get back to nature and feel the serenity that it offers.
My tools to the trade are a Sony Alpha a33 and Cybershot WX10. Both offer me great flexibility and keep me away from all confusion and dog-eat-dog world of Canon and Nikon. Combined with my mac I can edit them easily without the tiring need of the windows alternative. My lenses of choice are my 60mm Macro and my 65mm Prime, both allow me to catch both stunning images in heart-breaking detail, sadly i don't own them yet but have managed to use them a great deal.
I prefer to photograph nature, mainly plant life and inanimate objects just to keep things simple. I try to photograph insect life when I can but always find I never can catch them in action. I'm always learning new tricks and how to compose so I'm improving as I go.
I love to print on the larger (albeit more expensive) scale, poster size is always the best to enjoy the detail. Theres no point investing in large megapixels unless you use them.
I have many other interested other than my photography so I'll keep it short and sweet. My taste in music changes sporadically, one moment rock the next techno. Other than my music I do love to paint and put my emotions to the canvas, to produce pieces worthy of them.
To finish I end with a personal quote
"Capturing emotion is my desire, but in my photography I capture interpretation of all emotion as it should be perceived"
