David Angier's most popular photosMany years ago I was a keen amateur photographer, and gradually got suckered into the convenience of cheap "point and shoots". Recently, the nostalgia of "real" photography has lured me back to SLRs, and I am trying to redevelop some skills.
I am a fairly harsh self critic, and can find things wrong with practically every photo I have uploaded here, but they are the best I can shoot at the moment - hopefully I will improve over time.
My favourite type of photography is casual portraits, and the most challenging I find is landcapes.http://www.smugmug.com/img/smuggy64.gifhttp://dpangier.smugmug.com/popular/2009-11-29T00:00:59ZCopyright 2009, the copyright holder of each photograph.
