Title: Hello I'm new here...
Post by: Taylor on March 10, 2014, 03:40:44 pm: Hello my name is Taylor Moore. I just thought i would introduce myself (hopefully I did this in the right place). I am a commercial photographer specializing in landscape and architecture.
When I turned 50, I sold everything I own and hit the road shooting, and living off of my work while travelling. I am presently in Sintra, Portugal.
I very much look forward to learning and hopefully contributing to the forum.
If you are interested my signature has obvious links to work and video.

Cheers and respect,
Taylor Moore

Don't take Walter too seriously, Taylor. He's a very good guy and a very good photographer but he's of the "nothing will ever take the place of film" school, so if you express confidence in digital you may get some static.

Even Russ (RSL) may speak harshly if you dare to "crop" an image anywhere except in camera, but he's still a good guy and a fine photographer and usually (except when he disagrees with me) an excellent critic.

Let me add my welcome to the pool, Taylor!
