Nikon D3100 with stock lens, Fujifilm FinePix S5800, PhotoPlus X5, DrawPlus X5, PanoramaPlus X4, Paint.net, G.I.M.P, InkScape and Photomatix Essentials 4.0 are my weapons of choice.

I like to take photos, and occasionally they don't turn out too bad. I've been doing so for many years, and have recently taken to editing them. I have a great deal to learn, but I'm hopeful that a few of my photos can be of use to someone other than me, if only in the form of laughing at my ineptitude.
