Carl Roberts
Host

Carl Roberts is a 48 year old photo enthusiast with 35+ years of experience.
Shooting mainly travel photography, Carl has been to 32 countries including China, Russia, Egypt, Peru, & Turkey, where he discovered just how photographically diverse a country could be. Documenting the beauty & majesty of the world and the cultural diversity it provides, Carl enjoys the rich history, archaeological treasures and fascinating people of foreign lands.

Shooting with Digital is a substantial change from the days of film; The guess work of what your image would look like once you get it developed in a week or more is gone. The instantaneous nature of the medium has revolutionized the industry and the method of photography.
"I can store more images on a single CF card than I used to be able to take in 3 years when I shot film".
Carl shot Minolta film cameras for years and loved them. When moving into digital cameras he decided to go with Nikon because of the superior glass available. His first digital camera was a Nikon D70 then a D70s. Now shooting a D3 Carl still enjoys the Nikon brand.

MySpace, Flicker, Photobucket and sites like that allow you to instantaneously upload and share your pictures with friends and family from the road in ways that have been heretofore unthinkable.
Photoshop allows editing and correcting actions to everyone that were available to only the mostprofessional of photographers just a few years ago.

"We live in an amazing era. The digital revolution has transformed the business and enjoyment of photography. I am just glad to be living in such exciting times".

Carl is divorced and lives in Redington Beach overlooking the beautiful Gulf Of Mexico.
He has one beautiful daughter, Brooke, who is the love of his life.
