» About Me
My name is Jorge Quinteros and this is an online space where I express my thoughts, opinions, passion and interest.
I’m 28 years old, live in Brooklyn, New York with my beautiful wife and dog Chloe. I obtained a Bachelors in Graphic Design, worked with a small design firm in Long Island for 4 years while still being employed with a major retail company and now pursue the former while still freelancing with web projects. Through experimentation and curiosity I developed a passion for taking photos and practice the craft during my spare time.
Underneath the Hood
The site is powered by the simplistic yet wonderful Tumblr. Before deciding on the current platform, I experimented with Wordpress but eventually felt a connection with the immense community that accompanies Tumblr and haven’t looked back since then and it only seems to be getting better and better.
I write and publish all my entries through MarsEdit, implement aesthetic changes to the site with BBedit, upload with Transmit, track my readership with Analytics, input my two-senses with Tweetie and stay organized with Yojimbo.
The Equipment
Looking back at my long Apple computer ownership, I’ve always been more keen in selecting laptops as my primary machine. I currently work with a 15” MacBook Pro which I’ve owned since 2006 and have plans to upgrade to a unibody by 2010.
All my photographs and short videos are a product of my trusted Nikon D90. Photographs are managed and processed in Lightroom in combination with custom presets and video edited in iMovie. I own two lenses: 18-105mm and a 50mm f/1.8 which I use the most because of its impeccable depth-of-field and portability.
Reach Out
Quite frankly everyday I get more surprise with the amount of subscribers this site has accrued and I enjoy hearing from them, so I welcome any feedback from you with a trusty .
You can also follow me on Twitter and explore my photos on Flickr.
