Photography literally means 'drawing with light', which derives from the Greek photo, meaning light and graph, meaning to draw. Photography is the process of recording an image – a photograph – on light sensitive film or, in the case of digital photography, via a digital electronic or magnetic memory.

Guitar Strings and Picks
My choice of strings are GHS XL
Visit GHS
Good sound, last longer than other brands I have used.
My choice of picks are Dunlop. I like them because you can grip it without too much pressure, they have a flat finish on them which helps holding it between the thumb and index finger

This amp has a great sound for it's size, and the price is also good. Headphone jack, line out, all that is really needed. And distortion, which sounds good when you want to make some growling noise.

One of my top three choices of guitars. Plays like a dream, great sound, easy on the hands, excellent action.

Jimi Hendrix has been my all time favorite guitarist since I was twelve years old. I had to get a guitar because I wanted to learn right away. I couldn't afford a Fender Stratocaster so I got a cheap electric and started taking lessons. I learned the basic chords and started experimenting with sounds, feedback, and whatever else I could come up with. My parents were not impressed but let me play on anyways. I found others who had wanted to play in a band, we got together and started playing a few of Jimi's songs.

Not a quality sound but it was fun, something to do and you have to start somewhere. I just kept playing and learning as time went by. Eventually I did buy a Fender Stratocaster, and that was a great day; I played even more than ever before. I made it a habit to play every day, I just had a deep desire to get better, learn more lead and rhythm , and refine those skills. I have since been in several bands, had a lot fun doing gigs, meeting new musicians , and buying various guitars and amplifiers. Music is a important part of my life and a great escape from day to day life. My most recent guitar is the Jimi Hendrix model, a cool guitar that has a great sound and feel.
