About
My name is John Setzler. I reside in Hickory, North Carolina. I'm one of those geeks who carries a camera everywhere I go, but it's something I enjoy. I'm a full-time student again as I pursue a career change. While I'm working on that, I'm working as a photo stringer for my local newspaper. My newspaper assignments are primarily local sports, but I occasionally get some news and feature story work. I also dabble in artistic photography. I'm a member of my local camera club, which is celebrating its 60th year in 2007. I'm proud to be a part of that group, and I received the 2006 Advanced Photographer of the Year award from them in December of 2006. That was a great honor for me considering the membership of that group.
I haven't been into photography very long. I started taking photography seriously in early 2002. I bought my first decent digital camera at that time. I found a couple online digital photography communities, and my interest just exploded from that point.
Blogging is something for which I have recently acquired a taste. I'm not looking for a fan base or any other accolades. My blog is my diary of the new millennium. I find it therapeutic, to some extent, to write my thoughts and ideas. I try to post frequently, so all of my entries aren't much more than a photo with some notes to go along with it.
If you are actually reading this, thanks for stopping by!

Hey, John!
It was good to see you at the ‘Dads last night. I’m checking out your site now… Hmmmm… what is that underlying programming code? *chuckle* Your site looks good and is kinda “artsy”. Mine is so very… blah, but functional. Check it out and give me a shout.
