Me So, about Daryl Clark

The best solution payday loans

I was born and raised in the North Georgia area and currently still reside there.  I have always enjoyed art of all forms, but I am a very technically minded person and, therefore, creating art has not been easy for me.

I received my first digital camera in December of 2002.  It was just a point and shoot, had good resolution at the time (though anything today puts it to shame) and was perfect for what I used it for at the time.  In July 2007 I was fortunate enough to be able to shoot with a Canon Digital Rebel and my eyes were opened to a whole new world.  I began really learning what a camera could do, great works of art.

I was fortunate enough to get some professional training in the use of “real” cameras.  This just whet my appetite for more.  I began using Photoshop and other image editing programs (thank God for the price tag of GIMP!) to post process my photos.  I first learned how to selectively remove color from photos (What an amazing art technique), since have learned many other techniques.  I believe you can never have too many tools.

In November 2009, I began using a Canon 50D and the world of photography took off.  And in August 2010, I learned the HDR process.

I began shooting a Nikon D90 in January 2011 and have nothing but good things to say for it.

In March 2011 I decided to start the daily photo blog Just Shooting Memories.

    Hello, I am your Dad’s cousin so that makes me your second cousin I think. The pictures are gorgeous. You did such a good job. You are right about all the new technologies they have today, it is much easier to take and edit pictures. Keep up the good work. Loved it… Sandy

      Thank you Sandy. When I had the old point and shoot 35mm it cost so much to develop it was not possible. However, now, I get to see all the photos I take.
