I don't have the temperment needed to take take great portraits, or even good snapshots. My preference is to take candid, spontaneous pictures rather than posed portraits.

Le'ts be honest, no matter how much a photographer tells you to act natural and ignore the camera, it just can't be done. And it isn't easy to be inconspicuous with a zoom lens hanging around your neck.

For all these reasons, and more, I usually stick to photographing animals — they seem to have no problem ignoring me and acting naturally. Still, I've managed to cull a few snapshots for your viewing pleasure — enjoy!
