Personal Info

Hi my name is Andrew Leoszko. I was born on the 21/02/1986 and raised in Melbourne, Australia.

During primary school I always said I wanted to be an Architect. But ever since the first few days of high school my ideal job has changed many times over. Towards the end of high school I spent a lot of my time behind a computer screen and as a result learnt a great deal about computers and their workings. Because of this I was split between a keen interest in the arts, such as photography, graphic design and digital art, and another keen interest in computers.

When it came to choosing my University/TAFE courses I decided that my knowledge of computers was greater than my skill as an artist. I am currently in my final year of completing an Advanced Diploma of Computer Systems Engineering at RMIT.

In 2005 I went to www.deviantart.com and realised that I had created an account there a few years earlier and decided to put up some assorted pieces of art that I had created over the years. Soon I found myself addicted to the site and started experimenting and submitting more art. At the time my family had a simple point and click Kodak LS443 camera and I found myself using that more and more. I started looking online at all the latest cameras that I would possibly consider getting but I had no real intent to actually follow through with all of that. I hate spending money.

Then towards the end of 2005 I found myself randomly wandering around the city and literally just turned into a camera store looking for a price, 4 camera stores later I had myself a Canon 20D. That whole action was completely not what I would normally do, but never-the-less I had finally got my very own camera.

Now I am rethinking my life and testing the water of photography

Why I’m blogging!

I hate writing with a pen but I don’t mind typing and I want to keep some form of a visual diary for my photography. After a little thinking I created an account here and bobs-your-uncle I now have a visual diary/journal/blog thingo… I think
