In 2010, I moved up to the Nikon D300S.<\/p>\n<p>My photographic interests are primarily outdoor photography of all types and aviation photography.<\/p>\n<h1>About Me as a Professional<\/h1>\n<p>I am a chemical engineer by training and profession, and my present focus is chemical process development.
