A cursor carnivore.
Commonly found on the internet favoriting without commenting, or leaving snarky remarks. Primary source of nutrition is a selection of Windows cursors... but occasionally gorges on meat. Related to H. Stiggius, the white-suited racing, bipedal mute homonid. A photographer by choice, and wage worker by necessity.

I'm Kay, and I work--or try to, because everyone needs a day job--as a photographer in the American Northeast. I specialize in event photography, including meetings, gatherings, convention, and live music. I very occasionally do pre-arranged photoshoots. Generally I only post to DA what I find I like the most or what's interesting. As almost a rule, I don't model, and am pretty content behind the lens instead of in front of it. If you don't like something I have to say, that's fine; ignore me, delete me from your +watchlist, whatever.
I'm meaner than I look...or do I look meaner than I really am? I can never tell these days. I promise I don't bite too hard. Expect me to be distracted, aloof, easily amused, and all manner of fickleness.
Favourite genre of music: Instrumental rock/jazz-fusion
MP3 player of choice: iPod Nano 8GB Black

Personal Quote: Humor is one of life's greatest amenities. You can cloak yourself in its armor, it can sustain you through difficult droughts in happiness, bring you great friends, and disarm your fiercest enemies. To be without humor is to be without life itself.
