My style was sloppy fast work, well suited to parties and other gatherings associated with alcohol and University, and I would like to buckle down a bit more and improve the quality control aspects and background knowledge in Photography. I may be fighting a losing battle, but I'm not going to many parties any more, so I'll soon run out of subjects ;-) Time is the biggest enemy of the amateur.
