I've been lurking around...

Hello everyone, my name is Wes. I've been lurking around the site for a few days, getting a lay of the land before I decided to make this first post.

I've always been the type to quietly observe, and that's probably why I was drawn to photography. And since I tend to get along with animals better than with humans, I end up with shots like these:

My tendency toward quiet observance has also made philosophy one of my main interests. I am a fan of Rothbard, Mises, Hayek, Spooner, Thoreau, and many others that concern themselves with liberty and personal freedom. My personal philosophy springs from my belief in the Non Aggression Principle. This means I tend toward a Stateless society guided by voluntary interaction via a free market.

I'm excited about what this site means for personal freedom and free markets. I am also excited to share my photography with you all, so there's more to come. Thanks for reading. --Wes

I was encouraged to link to one of my portfolio sites to prove that these are my pictures. So, here you go.
