I am a working photographer based in Niagara though I have a passport and am more than willing to travel. A videographer. A drone pilot. A fool. I wear many hats. This blog focuses on the fun things in my life. Photography. Nature. Technology. And anything else I feel like writing about. This is GYST a blog (pun most definitely intended) about life, the universe, and everything. From Carl, your friendly neighbourhood Design Guy.
