Made a partial jump to digital in 1999 with a 1.3 megapixel Kodak camera. In 2003 I upgraded to a Nikon E5700, more megapixels and better glass.<br \/>\nIt wasn&#8217;t until 2006 that I made the leap to a DSLR, a Nikon D80. Blew the shutter on the D80 and bought a D90 in 2009.<br \/>\nCurrently I shoot with a Nikon D7100. I like the DX format the bodies are lighter. Maybe I will make the jump to full frame someday, but for now DX will do.<\/p>\n<p>I grew up in New York and have now lived in Highlands Ranch, Colorado for the last 25 years.<\/p>\n<p>Even though photography has been part of my life for more than 30 years I decided I wanted some formal training. So I enrolled in the Professional Photography course from the New York Institute of Photography and completed it in January of 2012. I have also attended many seminars and workshops in and around Denver.<\/p>\n<p>I am also a member of the National Association of Photoshop Professionals.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-425\" src=\"http:\/\/michaelkleih.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/20120125-NYIP-Certificate-238x300.jpg\" alt=\"20120125 NYIP Certificate\" width=\"238\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/michaelkleih.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/20120125-NYIP-Certificate-238x300.jpg 238w, https:\/\/michaelkleih.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/20120125-NYIP-Certificate.jpg 794w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 238px) 100vw, 238px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>You can find more of my photos on Flickr, \u00a0www.flickr.com\/photos\/dudewithcamera\/<\/p>\n<p>I am on Facebook as well,\u00a0www.facebook.com\/michael.kleih<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; My photography journey started in the 70s with a Kodak 110 Instamatic, I think it was an Ektralite.
