In this section of the collage: photo of the Caribbean that was part of the word puzzle and Marcel Duchamp.
Images include photography, Flash® pieces, and video. The last two categories may include photography, drawings, sound, but the images are more important than the audio.

Photography
I have been a photographer at Busch Gardens for 3 years. During the first two years, my job was to photograph people entering the park, but this year I worked at the Jack Hannah Reserve, where I worked taking pictures of people interacting with animals. My favorite themes are flowers, trees, small animals and food. During the last three months, I have been shooting extreme close ups of animals that live around my house. I have used a high definition lens originally intended for use in dentists' offices. Almost 100 % of my photos have not been altered with Photoshop or similar software, unless they are used in Flash.
These are the cameras I have used:
- Fuji FinePix A200,
- Kodak EasyShare Z710
- Nikon D40
- Nikon D90
- Nikon D300 (professional camera)
- iPhone 3G
Flash
Flash cannot only be used for interactive applications, but also to draw and handwrite labels, for example the top and bottom images in this site. My goal with Flash is to use it as an animation tool.
Most Flash created in class were made with Creative Suite 3 (CS3), while the pieces created after February of 2009 were made with CS4.
Video
Usually, I carry with me a small camera that has a very good microphone, but its lens has a very low resolution. Video and film mean moving photography plus sound, that is why I have used photos and sound to make videos.
