Hi, I'm Greg. I got my first camera when I was about 10. It was a hand-me-down Kodak that had originally been my great-grandfathers. My memory of the camera was its unorthodox means of taking a photo. You positioned the camera at you waist and looked down into the viewfinder. The film was far larger than 35mm format and was only available in black and white. I remember using it on a holiday to Glacier National Park in Montana in the 1970s. My sister and I took turns making exposures of the impressive landscape throughout the trip.
My next camera was a Nikon FM which I received as a high school graduation gift. Although it was a brand new camera, it had already been supplanted by subsequent models. It is a beautiful camera and still gets envious looks from photo-geeks.
I am currently shooting with a Nikon D70s and I'm now only shooting digitally. Currently, I am doing very little post processing, but I hope to change that in the near future. My wife tells me that I am a flickr-addict and I guess I have to agree.

    " I have been a contact of Greg's for quite some time. I have not and probably will never meet Greg. Greg's photo's always inspire Me. He has posted Family outings, vacation memories, floral, architectural, pet, wonderful derelict buildings, and landscapes. All done with a style or flair if You will of His own. Do Yourself a favor, and give Yourself a treat and check out Greg's photostream.

    As a contact (Flickrfriend), Greg is top notch. I don't think He has ever missed commenting on My humble works. He is VERY supportive and encouraging. My life has been definitely enriched by My Unmet Friend.
