About FailedGuideDog Photography
This is my personal photoblog. I try to post one photo a day. The main reason is to showcase my best works, the secondary reason is the underlying photobloging software I call "PixelPerfect".
About me
My name is Uroš Trebec. I am a Computer Science student from Slovenia, Europe. Photography has been my passion (on and off) for about 8 years in which I had quite a few successes in the local photo community as well as abroad. However the last four years or so were a little lacking in artistic expression so I decided to get on track. Finally, after a few months of hard work for Google I could afford a new digital photo equipment and got back into photography. I hope some of you would find my photos as enjoyable as I do.
