Ned BadertscherSara's interest in photography began when she received her first digital camera. Ned is a long time amateur who envies her photographic eye, and whose enthusiasm since "going digital" has never been greater. Retired and living in beautiful Carlsbad, their days are filled with beach walks, traveling, and developing their personal photographic visions.
Carrie BartonFor Carrie Barton, photography is not only a passion but a way of seeing. Through the camera, she shows the big picture as well as emphasizes the details. Every subject holds potential in color, pattern, beauty, or emotion, but her favorites are landscapes and nature, architecture, abstracts, and aerial photography. She shoots with a Nikon D100 but rarely manipulates photos in the computer beyond the darkroom basics.

Robert BennettI am a Vista Attorney who started taking pictures at age ten. Using a Mamiya 1000s and Canon Digital Rebel during the past two years to capture images has added fuel to the fire. Thanks to Michael Seewald, Donna Cosentino, Will Tompkins and Paul Johnson, I now look at practicing law as something that interferes with my never ending effort to capture interesting images.
Jeff BinterNew To Digital SLR Photography Any and All feedback welcomed Using a Canon T1i Enjoy Landscape,Aircraft Photography See More Photos at http://jbinterphotography.shutterfly.com/
Jeffrey R BrosbeI look upon creating the image much as a poet must feel about creating a haiku. It should be whole in its surface observation while offering commentary in its interpretation. In 1994, more than three decades later after my start in photography, I offered my art to the general public with the creation of Beyond Words Fine Art Photography.
Doug BurgessDoug recently retired from software development and now plans to make photography and Photoshop his hobby.

Peter FayPhotography has been a passion for much of Peter's life but it wasn't until he retired from a career in engineering that he had the time to really pursue it. The primary sources of inspiration and material for his portfolio have been worldwide travel and hiking in wilderness, but he has also found wonderful material right in "his own backyard".
Fred HeinzmannFred is a retired engineer who has had photography as a hobby off and on since he was a teenager. The advent of digital technology has breathed new life into the hobby.
Grant HulbertA software engineer by trade, Grant became interested in photography when digital cameras first became viable with 4+ megapixels. He shoots a Canon 20d, but still uses the venerable Nikon CoolPix 4500 for macro shots..
Bob MandichTwo of my favorite hobbies are travel and photography--especially people. I enjoy the interaction and rapport with the subjects, even if is only a conversation, a "Please", "Thank you" or a handshake. My first gallery is an example of this.
Joyce Mateprojects her connection to nature, especially through her floral and landscape images. Nature scenes, particularly in the Midwest, stir her artistic emotions. All in all, if a scene can be photographed and Joyce has her camera nearby, she'll capture it. Some of Joyce's photo art has won awards.

Kathy NashKathy enjoys nature and travel photography and is always in pursuit of a forgotten barn or dramatic light in her native Minnesota or in Montana where she spends several months each year. Her favorite subjects in San Diego are the varying moods and colors of the ocean and lagoons.
Dan NougierFor travel images, I try to bring home intimate pieces rather than the whole city. It is always a challenge trying to distill a large chaotic scene into the simplest elements that still convey all the emotions of the grander area. Most of my images are 35mm slides, which help fuel my enjoyment of Polaroid transfers and lifts. My latest toy is a Holga fitted with a Polaroid back. (And yes, I do admit to owning a small digital camera.)
Martin OretskyCombining photography and travel is one of my hobbies. My most recent trip was to Tasmania, Australia.

Michael Seewald"Seewald's images communicate in a quiet, lyrical way. Speaking to the photographer, one feels that this is an individual so in love with his art, so in love with the world, that he'll work for as long as he's able to see, as long as his legs and arms will carry him".

Sanford ShermanI took a course at UCSD in photography and aesthetics. One of the lectures included a study of Western concepts of beauty originating from the art of the Greeks and the Romans. Then my wife, Ann Force, and I were in the museums and Roman Villas of Italy. We were overwhelmed by the volume and beauty of the ancient art. Now it was just a matter of holding the camera steady because no flash or tripods are allowed.
Richard StephensRichard has been taking photos all his life, but only seriously started learning the craft with his first digital camera in 2002. His work and camera go around the world. This gallery is a sampling.
