FAQ

How long have you been involved in photography?
Since my parents first made the mistake of letting me borrow their Olympus OM-1 when I was 13 or so.

What is your favorite subject to shoot?
Paintball. Paintball and photography are interests I pursued separately for a while, before I realized they could be combined.

How can I find out when you upload photos?
I'll be posting updates on Twitter when new photos are added to the site.

Can I use your photos?
Contact me at mdeep88 at gmail.com for information.
If you play paintball and I have a photo of you in my gallery, you are welcome to post it on your MySpace/Facebook/forum profile/etc., provided you do not remove or obscure the watermark. It's a small watermark, and I've tried not to make it ugly. You may crop away the watermark ONLY if it is necessary to fit the photo in an avatar or signature banner.


What do you primarily use for close-up and macro photos?
The Vivitar Series 1 90mm f2.5 Macro.

What do you use to protect your camera on paintball fields?
A Kata E-702 rain cover.

What software do you use for post-processing?
Canon Digital Photo Professional and Adobe Photoshop CS4.
