My name is obviously Mike Pennington. Thanks for checking out my profile. Ever since I can remember, I have loved pictures. All through my youth I took every opportunity to use a camera I could find. I had no idea what I was really doing but I knew I enjoyed it. In my teens, I decided I wanted to be a firefighter. I became a cadet on the fire department and when I would go to fires and help lug equipment for the firefighters, I had a camera in my pocket. Rarely did the pictures come out, but sometimes I would get lucky. I used to ask the department photographer questions all the time marveling at his camera gear. At 19, I joined the Army and routinely got in trouble when I would sneak my disc camera out of my pocket and take pictures during basic training (did a lot of pushups for that). When I was stationed in Okinawa the first purchase I made was a Pentax K1000 – my first SLR. Once I got started I had to learn every step there was from loading the camera to making the print. I have been off to the races ever since.  I still can’t get enough.
