About me, owner of a small landscaping company, entrepreneur, photography enthusiast
Hobbies: photography, archery, writing, conspiracy theories, comedy movies.
My Life Theme is "All In" I had it tattooed on my arm after completing an addictions program 3 years ago. It's a slogan I lived by through the good and bad in my life. When I decide on a course of action, i go all in 100%.
Recently celebrated 3 years of sobriety after a long struggle with alcohol addiction, in my first year of recovery I found journalling, meditation and exercise helped me get through. I soon found that writing and photography were hobbies I tried and took a liking to.
I currently suffer from social anxiety, and find it easier to communicate by email and online, but it’s something I’m constantly working at getting better, meeting people at the gym, at archery courses and a small photography club are all making substancial dents in the real world isolation as I steadily push myself out of my comfort zone.
When I found out about steemit, i thought it may be a good platform to showcase some of my photography and meet other photographers to get tips to better my trade.
Also as I will be posting some tips and experiences I’ve had dealing with social anxiety, which will hopefully help anyone else going through it.
The information in so many subjects here, and the community support from day one is like nothing I’ve ever experienced right from day one. I’m proud to be a part of this community and look forward to seeing where we take it.
Thank you all :)

Thanks for checking out my post, we've had a few days of rain so photography hasn't been possible but the next few days are going to be good weather, so hopefully will be catching sunrise/sunset, and whatever happens in between.
