Ramblings of a Philosopher

As you've noticed, I haven't been around here much in the last couple of months. This may continue, as I have been and will be quite busy with work, and I have been trying to focus on other things as well. I will keep shooting though and I'll try to submit something every now and then. My watch is clogged though and I'm not sure if I'll ever get through the backlog, but we'll see. Anyway, if you want to keep up with my work, you might be better off checking out my new web page, ttahko.net. I've got an integrated photo gallery there, which already has a lot more stuff than I've ever had on dA, even if the quality of it all isn't that great. I will keep posting my shots there.

Anyway, I present to you the winners of the recent MountainShots contest, the club which I founded but have now given up to some great dedicated people:

Something About Me

I've always liked photography, but before I bought my first D-SLR in June 2007 I couldn't have called myself even an amateur photographer. I've learned a lot since, but I'm still far from being able to take full advantage of my equipment. Hopefully the day will come when I can - the support and advice from this community have certainly helped me approach that target.

In my "civil" life, I'm a philosopher. I'm based at Durham University, where I completed my Ph.D. in April 2008 and am currently a Visiting Research Fellow. Philosophy is and will always be my first love and my profession, but photography, hill walking (or the outdoors in general), literature, music, films and food&drink are also very important to me. A couple of other random facts about me: I'm originally from Finland and have lived most of my life in Helsinki. I moved to England to do my Ph.D. in October 2005. I'm also a vegetarian, have been for some eight years. I'm more than happy to hear from anyone who shares my interests!
