Below is not my photography portfolio!

My portfolio is too wild to show on Nikon Cafe!

(email me if you are interested in seeing it and I will give you a link)

 

Some of the images below are great photographs,

some are examples of what needs improvement,

some are snap-shots from my tattoo studio,

taken by other customers,

some are reworks by me of others work posted on Nikon Cafe

and a few are my work in and around my life.

Enjoy.
