There was a time for me before IT and I paid the bills with photography on the side while studying. I was really lucky to have a nice, but odd choice of an Olympus E-30 DSLR with a sweet 14-54 14-54mm f/2.8-3.5 lens, along with all sorts of hacked together and random equipment together equipment that let me take the following shots. I was also really lucky that I had some great friends who trusted me to to take great shots to publicise their bands or their events
