Gordon Smith (Pixelhorse)'s recent photos http://pixelhorse.smugmug.com/ Hi, I'm Gordon. I live in Portland, Oregon with my wife Cathy and our eight year old pooch Kirah. I've been pointing a camera at stuff since I was in high school. When I was in my twenties I was an avid SCUBA diver and underwater photographer. Perhaps one day I'll get those 35mm underwater shots scanned and put them here on smugmug. I've also been into hiking and backpacking on and off through the years and have done quite a lot of nature and landscape photography in that context. More stuff to scan and post! Currently I also pursue Geocaching on occasion, and cycling almost daily. I took my bio shot during the summer of 2005 at the half way point of the "STP", which is the Seattle to Portland bicycle classic. It's a 200 mile bike ride, done each summer by about 10,000 cyclists. Some finish in one day, but most take two days to complete it, including me. For years Nikons lived happily in my camera bag, an FA for land work and a Nikonos V for underwater. Fantastic cameras both. Five years ago I jumped to digital with an Olympus E-10, a nice camera but a bit heavy for hiking. In March of 2006 I added a Panasonic FZ7 to the stable. It's light and compact but I was often disappointed with its image quality. And so in March of 2008 I sprung for a Nikon D80 dSLR, coming full circle back to the venerable Nikon brand I've enjoyed for so many years. So far the D80 is a real beaut! Check out the "Some Favorites" gallery for the choice pics from the new camera. Enjoy!
