Well, I tried to change my DU name to Matcom but it was already taken.....
anyways, i was tired of having the word "bush" as part of my DU name so i changed it to something more suitable for where i'll be posting from in the (hopefully) not-so-distant future.

gato moteado, among other things, means spotted cat. ;) since i plan to seek and photograph jaguars, ocelots and other big felines in the rainforests of central america, i hereby change my DU name from flush_bush to Gato Moteado.

now, this doesn't mean i won't still be helping everyone here to rid the world of the cancerous infection known as the republican party once i'm tucked away in my tropical hide-away. i just wanted a more positive DU name. and, besides, i'm thinking the old name will be obsolete soon enough after the upcoming impeachment hearings once the election fraud has been thoroughly exposed.

3. I am so envious! Is this professional or personal?
The photographing, I mean. I'm a nature nut. Love animals; wish I could see these cats, too. Will you let us see some of your photos?

4. it's not professional.......yet
but some day i wouldn't mind getting a wildlife photography gig. i am planning to build up a huge stock collection of neotropical animals and plants and eventually trying to sell images to publications around the world.

i'm in the software industry now, but i've been a photographer since i was a kid. photographing jaguars in the wild has been a dream of mine for a long time.
