alienfast

I'm known as HeartAttack. "Alienfast" was an old handle I used before when I really couldn't think of anything to use lol. I like to take pictures, and do so with my trusty Canon Rebel XT, the kit lens and my Sigma 70-300mm telephoto lens, as well as various filters. First and foremost, though, I consider myself a digital artist. I retouch model photography of my own as well as for other photographers. When I am reviewing a particular shot I've taken, I'll judge it not entirely based on how good it might look initially, but based on how great I think it can look with a little post processing. Don't misunderstand, however: I'm not the type that thinks Photoshop is a replacement for good photography or anything. I shoot proficiently in fully manual mode (manual focus as well) and do my best to capture my creative visions with decent quality. I wouldn't take a terrible shot into Photoshop and act like some filter will somehow magically fix it :p

Anyways, I love music and games, I'm an all-around tech nerd. I enjoy building/upgrading my own PCs, and I'm generally the "go-to" guy for tech-related stuff. I recently got married to the love of my life and she is my inspiration! I couldn't be more happy with life! :)
