PCP...just disovered a link to your blog on mpix. You work is excellent...some I like better than others but most are excellent. I was shocked to find that you are 24 years old. I think if you can learn to market yourself professionally, your hobby might soon pay your bills! :)
Good luck and keep up the good work! In my photographers opinion, after observing your work, your strenghts are in the eyes of people....continue to look into the souls of your subjects and your work will sell itself!!!
Best wishes,
