To see the world, to capture and to share it. That is what I love.

The photographer I was recently given the honor to be highlighted by my long time awesome full service camera shop located on Austin, Texas. As my first post, here on Steller, I decided to share that interview with you. All Images © LesMarti

"The negative is the equivalent of the composer's score, and the print, the performance" ~Ansel Adams.

At least with negatives the worst nightmare is fire. Today with digital files it's not if, it's when the hard drive fails.

Click Away 2015, my official sponsor which I am so excited to collaborate with is ColorInc.com. This multipurpose and service orientated professional lab is a one stop shop.

ATX & New Braunfels were just two of the masses of walks that took place this weekend.

A place where the music never stops. This old wooden structure with several layers of white paint, black screen doors and what looks to be the original wooden floors has held steady through the years.
