Who is Chuck Brant and why photography?

My Name is Chuck Brant I live in the New Bern, NC, I'm a Software Development Director at Red Hat , owner of a Catalina 42 owner and lucky husband of Wendi Brant.

Welcome to my photo blog! I'm excited to share with you my journey as a new photographer. My camera is a micro four thirds camera which has a smaller sensor compared to traditional DSLRs so there are some limitations, but it allows for a more compact and lightweight body and much smaller lenses making it ideal for travel.

I wanted to do something creative that ties in with travel and could be done anywhere. I have setup this site on Github that it can be updated with just a few applications on my ipad or iphone, such as working copy, textastic and apple photo. I felt like photography was part technical with things like aperture, shutter speed, and ISO, and part creative with the importance of good lighting and composition. Part of what makes photography so rewarding to me is the more you learn, the more you can improve your skills and create images that truly capture your vision.

As I continue on this photography journey, I look forward to sharing my experiences and images with you through this blog. I hope others can enjoy it and this will be a place I can share some of my challenges and successes I encounter along the way.

Thanks for stopping by.
